I feel like we could use a forum for longer-term reconciliation folks. Past the 2-5 years of recovery. I'm in a place where we're mostly great. Finally, we argue about normal things, like money and family. And yet....the A still pops up for me. Not something that I mention, but certainly something that is in the back of my mind as we navigate normal again.

Ladybugmaam,
Great idea.
My spouse and I are long-haulers in this recovery process (35 years post D-day) and I want to go on record of being in strong support of a forum for individuals/couples who are years or even decades into rebuilding, reshaping, reimagining their once shattered marriage. I know my issues today are not the issues that tore my heart out, devastating my self-confidence and warped my views on life once the shock of finding out about my wife's affair. I am also become painfully aware that my advice is not wise advice for those in the early years so I have grown quiet. But I do believe I have something of value to offer as well as to gain from other long-haulers. I hope SI gives your request deep thought and consideration.
