Hey,

sorry for radio silence for over a year or so, but I was busy with life and coming back here often felt too heavy of a burden to bear. But I got many private messages (read them all just today, sorry!) about how am I (or we) doing. No idea if i picked the right forum (General), but I hope it’s fine.

To those of you who have reached out - thank you for caring, and once again, sorry for leaving without warning.

We (yes, we) are doing.. well. Some days are better, some worse, but I think we are out of the woods so to speak. There are still some things (on both sides) than are unresolved and the hurt is still there, but we are working on it.

Hope I will fond time to come back later with deeper insight, but for now - doing good, R in full and all that..

See you soon.
Mr. F

Good to hear from you MrF and that things are going relatively well.

Are you happy in the relationship? Still glad you are in it? How has she made changes to make you feel safe. And if you don’t mind sharing, what are the remaining issues you are working on.

That said, I wish you both well in the continued journey.

fBBF. Just before proposing, broke it off after her 2nd confirmed PA in 2 yrs. 9 mo later I met the wonderful woman I have spent the next 30 years with.

Thank you all for the well wishes, I am really grateful for all the help you provided in time of my greatest need.

I have gone over my original thread (what a ride, still a painful one) and it’s truly surreal experience reading all that few years down the road. I originally wanted to write a long summary of everything but I had stopped myself, because who wants to read all that, right? So I just want to let you know things are good, with slight overcloud occasionally. Kids are doing great, too. I just wanted to adress few thing that Stevesn mentioned.

1) I am glad I "stayed". It took me a while, but when I got out of that sinkhole full of hurt (I would say about 2 years post dday or so) I realized how strange I often acted out of hurt, pride and strong feeling of injustice that had been done not only to me, but to my children.

That whole story of divorce as a prerequisite for R is a nice example.

Other sensitive topics (few years out of dday) include polygraph (surprisingly, I am

The one who rethinks this, and quite often!) and my dentist friend from right after our D was finalized

I will come back with more, but right now I am writing this on my phone, which is a pain, so forgive me for cuting it short here.

Hope to see you soon,

Mr. F

Ps wasn’t sure you would even remember me given how many people like me (us) come here every day for help. Sad and a bit depressing to be honest.
