TODAY...8 years ago...the precious M that I LOVED was destroyed when my H confessed to his A that he had while working overseas . It is gone...and although we have been able to get many things back...it is something we won't ever have again.

But wait...there's MORE !! We COULD dwell on what was LOST. But we have CHOSEN to instead focus on what we HAVE!!

I wrote about this day in the "Positive Reconciliation Stories" thread. It is on page 13 if anyone is interested .

OUR life changed forever that day...for the BETTER!! I honestly thought we had a GOOD M. But that was the issue. WE weren't thinking the same...and my H made a choice that showed just how out of sync we were.

Not anymore!! We have truly become ONE. A TEAM!! I can honestly say that I HATE what my H did...and also honestly say that I am MORE in love with him than ever before . His ACTIONS have proven to me that he is a man of integrity...but WORDS matter too. His words that he uses NOW truly reflect his actions. That was something I never caught before. You don't know what you don't know though...you know?!

We WILL be celebrating tonight because OUR story didn't END on Dday. It CHANGED...it got MESSY...and it was UNCERTAIN for a while. But WE both went ALL IN for each other...and I LOVE the story of US now !!!

Thank you for sharing this. WH and I are working towards R, and this is exactly what I hope we can achieve. It's nice to hear that it's possible!

Congratulations! What a journey you have been on!

Thanks for sharing, you are truly an inspiration here.

Seeing this did my soul so much good today.

I love to see someone come out on the other side . . .happy.

Kind and wise words. Thank you.

Happy Anniversary W2BHA! Your post is so full of positivity, if fills my heart with joy. Congratulations!

Thanks y'all .

I was actually out of town when I started this thread. I wasn't sure until right before I wrote it that I would be able to make it back to my H for us to celebrate...but God made it happen for us !

We weren't apart for 10 weeks like we were when my H had his A. It was actually less than a week this time . BUT...the LOOK in my H's eyes when I came home...as well as the HUG and KISS he gave me...told me everything I needed to know about how much he MISSED me . I didn't see that look when he came home after his A. And THAT hug and kiss 8 years ago...it was more like a hug a brother gives to his sister. What a DIFFERENCE this time!! I'LL TAKE IT !!

We ended up having to deal with more family issues when I got back...so we weren't able to have a sit down meal in a restaurant to celebrate. But we did go to the FINEST drive in dining restaurant in town . YEP...Sonic !!
Last night though...I had some of Louisiana's BEST cuisine...SEAFOOD .

Nice work W2BHA!

Oldwounds...I know YOU like reading that thread as much as I do !!

Thank you for your kind words my friend .

Your post warms my heart.

And I’m jealous of the seafood!!

Grieving...thank you !! We are right on the cusp...the ending of crawfish season...and the season for crabs and shrimp. I was able to have a little of all three . C'est Bon!!!
