Hi:
It's 10:59 responding.  It's interesting you bring up the subject of anger.  I was going to cover that, but my original post seemed like it was getting a little too long and ramble-y

One of the things that surprised me most about my own reaction to this whole thing is that I never felt anger.  I really am puzzled by this even today.  I used to get angry just [b]hearing about[/b] about other stories of infidelity.

I assume the shock and pain just overwhelmed everything else. It really was completely devastating -- to the point where I wondered how I was ever going to get back to reality and be able to focus on work and other priorities.  That 'daily' feeling of devastation lasted well into the second year.

The good news is that eventually time wears down the intensity of these feelings.  Having a two to three year horizon to the 'new normal', crazy as it sounds, is not all that unreasonable.  The bad news is that the new normal is a far cry from what I envisioned when I committed to DW. [/quote]
