[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you for taking your time to help me and the others who read this.

I forgive him in the sense that it no longer causes me pain due to the affair. The pain I feel is in myself and my inadequacies in myself. They have come to the forefront because of the situation I am in. I am positive in that I will be ok however walking away from what was my life is oh so hard. I cannot accept another relationship from this same man. If the problems we had before discovering this were it I might have been able to stay. This affair on top of all of his other problems is too much to bear. I'm like a dying butterfly, slowly flapping its wings to keep going. Only until I leave will I be able to get the air I need to survive.[/quote]

I'm 12:11.

Your statement about feeling like a dying butterfly really struck me as well. As I mentioned in my story, one thing I do regret is how quickly I reconciled with DH once he "saw the light". I should've taken more time for me and not rushed into being with him in the fear that he would change his mind and/or go back to the OW.

I realize it now, but didn't then, that if he was serious about reconciling and doing right by me, my needing a break would not change things.

So sorry you're going through this OP. I wish you peace and a restful mind. One of the worst things for me during that time was my overactive imagination. I also encourage you to cry it out when you need to. I would sometimes put on sad music with the express intent to just cry and get it all out. If only for a little while, it eased my heartache a bit. [/quote]
