    Returning To The New Normal

    Well, its Saturday, and Hero is at the gym. About 30 minutes from now he will roll in ,eat, and plant himself in the recliner with the remote. Only to potty and eat will his location change. its almost funny to watch this huge specimen sit so stationery for so long with his attention glued to...

    MAGS, Thanks very much. This has been hard. I've been living with issues from my spine so long, and combined with still recovering from chemo, it's kind of making me nuts. Not nuts but you are one TOUGH cookie. Reading what you have been through has made me hurt, and I have no physical...

    It's a Texlahoma Story

    It seems reasonable to me to ask him to sort this out before they decide on the move. If he's moving partly because of you, and intends to have something more open, she should know that this is the case. Also, if drama surfaces after he asks for more open, it's gonna be drama in another city...

    Returning To The New Normal

    Mags Then I see no reason to tell Hero, unless this guy starts trying to out you to shared friends or whatever. That is probably best. There are no shared friends. That was on the not acceptable list from the beginning and I stuck to that one and did not violate that boundary. He actually...

    What is this feeling... and advice on how to deal

    It was never about her wanting anything sexual with anyone. Just different types of emotional bonds or friendships, without putting arbitrary limitations on them. She has been taking things slowly and for that I am grateful. Jay, That comes from your first post. It's not all about what she...

    Mags, Glad you are not going to this alone. I guess I am just cautious. Very sorry to hear about your back problem. I hope its not a disc issue because they will need to do MRI before they can give you cortisone shot if you want that to relieve the pain. Very happy your guhy in mexico is...

    Returning To The New Normal

    What kind of stupid thing might this genius do? Can you not block him from all social media? Are you afraid he will contact Hero or some of your friends and out you about all the things you did? Mags, this was one guy who I liked and trusted. He just wants to have sex with me again. He was one...

    Returning To The New Normal

    Well, I made an appointment with another therapist. JUst want to try to figure out how I got here for my own benefit. My instinct tells me “resentment” , FOO, and MLC, but for my own sanity I need to delve deeper into this. Or was it just plain selfish or as Ester Perel says how hard it is for...

    Returning To The New Normal

    OK. LOL. My prince is not the Serbian half of this couple. He’s a good old fashioned WASP. Now the bad news. Just when everything is going pretty good, my husband has just told me he has to travel all week next week. I thought this shit was over. Not that big a deal I guess. Just me being...

    Returning To The New Normal

    Not sure why or what you are trying to do, but can't see how this is helpful so I'll just choose to ignore it.

    Returning To The New Normal

    Well, its Friday and Hero and I leave in a few hours for some fancy business get together about two hours from here. Really wish it was last week end and that we were headed to a football week end. I feel out of place with most of these other wives at these things. Most of them are at least ten...

    Returning To The New Normal

    [/B] Were on the same page on this one Power. I could NEVER work in a kill shelter. We have multiple big dogs of our own. Hero worries I'll bring the whole shelter home. Your life is so different from mine that I just can't quite wrap my head around it! Different than I ever expected too...

    Returning To The New Normal

    I'm getting the impression that your kids are all out of the house? If so, maybe you are already doing this, have you considered volunteering, or possibly taking on part-time employment with something you really WANT to do, so you have something tangible just for YOU? Since you don't need the...

    Age Gaps

    Al, I also do not buy the age gap as an issue. And I apologize for what I am going to say but you were basically given an ultimatum that your wife was going to have a sexual relationship with her old boyfriend and have been remarkable in fighting to accept it. Your alternative was divorce it...

    Returning To The New Normal

    Last week or whenever it was when you and I commented on that other thread this was the exact point I was trying to make and for whatever reasons it kept getting lost. Maybe it didn't sound positive enough or something but at least you get it and see it. Clearly you're still married and neither...

    Returning To The New Normal

    OMG. What a week end!!!! I feel so much more upbeat. It is so wonderful to spend time with Hero away from business parties, business conferences, friends and their families. It's like we were on a desert island with no worries in the world. He is like a different person when he just relaxes. It...

    Returning To The New Normal

    It CAN be done. I'm not saying your situation will work out (are you sure you can be happy being mono for instance?) but there is reason for hope. Powerpuff. Thank you so much. I needed to hear this. I am determined to win his love back and build a new marriage. I know the old one is a dead...

    Returning To The New Normal

    Well, I just need to get some of this stuff out, and have no where else to do it. This will probably be very boring since I am bucking the trend here and am transitioning back to mono instead of on the journey the other way. My thread is here...

    It's a Texlahoma Story

    It's a shame Andy takes it so personally, even when it's merely temporary! I can understand his jealousy around Castle being there often to nurse you and do household work, but otoh he could just be grateful you're being well cared for! I can put myself in his place and understand how he might...
