Welcome!

I am sorry to hear your story and know of your pain.

I am sorry you have been so hurt by someone who apparently is just too caught up in self gratification to commit to you, his marriage and his ... commitments!

I am not in a very good place to give you support since I, too, am still deep in the sadness/anger/resentment phase of my process.

We still have young children and I just can't believe he can do this to them, much less me.

So, stick around the board and we can all offer each other shoulders to cry on and encouragement!

I've given up praying to get over this. I've just been praying to make it OK through the day. It's worked much better.

I'm bad at doing these message boards- I'm not sure if I posted a reply to you or not- but thanks so much for the support and welcome.

Congradulations. You married a narcsissist. I did too. In our 4 year marriage, there was MariaElena (whom we both worked with, but whom he only flirted with), Candice (whom I only recently found out he slept with), and Maria (who was the last one, and he moved in with her last I heard and they are very happy).

I have had those long nights waiting by the phone.

I have had those discovering moments of some little trinket or e-mail or communication that I wasn't supposed to know about (but he didn't hide every well).
