[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone successfully done this?  I cheated and DH understandably can't get past it and we are going to split.  I'm heartbroken but I know I caused this and he needs to do what's right for him.  We both really want to stay friends. Right now there is much sadness and depression but we are getting along okay.  We are in the beginning stages of planning for the separation.  [b]We've been together our entire adult lives so lots of details to work ou[/b]t.  I guess my question is has anyone successfully remained friends with an ex?  I am optomistic and we are communicating well I just don't know if it's possible, given the history and our underlying feelings.[/quote]

Dear STBX:

Yes, we have been together our entire adult lives through various ups and downs.  And yes, I was devastated when I found out you cheated because it broke my trust in you.  It also threw my life into complete turmoil and made me embittered because I was always willing to work through our issues.  But hey, no big deal as your need for self fulfillment is so high.  What do I care that you spread your legs for another guy.  Yup, definitely want to be friends because we are so mature and open and have all this history.  [/quote]
