i need to go through my mp3 player for the gym and playlists at work and change things up...to many woe-is-me breakup songs.
one of play lists at work is 'Feel like $hit' and it has all being dumped or love lost music.

I think some Rush, NIN and Foo-Fighters are in order today.

Hi Z

Just a quick suggestion, although w and I built a massive music library most of which I have had access to from bd right to now, I spent most of the last 9 months NOT listening to it. I took the opportunity to visit soundcloud and spotify and many others and listen to new stuff, suggestions from slightly younger stepsister (ok, not many of those made my playlist wink ) but generally expand the horizons helps when you're aiming for a new you, also helps escape memories being triggered which - I dont know about you - but music has always done for me.

Keep going Z

ya music is about as powerful as it gets in my heart. It triggers tears within me, puts me in a great mood, centers me, or can shut me down...depending on the mood of the song.

I will look at new options through amazon prime, see where that goes.

THANK YOU!

Wife just called, she just registered for her last three classes to get her BA. I guess we will find out soon enough if this is what she has been waiting for to leave, right?

I hate myself for part of me thinking that she could be capable of such deception. i have read enough of these forums and so many others, with so many LBS's who thought thier spouses would never be capable of such a betrayal.

oddly enough, my IC did tell me that at some point we were going to have to discuss some kind of discovery / disclosure session in order to figure things out...he even said that from time to time they have had to send people to polygraph. so much fun.

Interesting, so this is what it is - you are feeling the other shoe is going to drop and you're in a holding pattern?

Hi Zephyr,

I've been trying to catch up with your situation. I don't believe I've posted a reply on your thread -- until now. wink

Please don't hate yourself, I feel the same way about my WAW, and hated myself, too. I felt betrayed, deceived and plain old stupid. After a while, I realzied that thinking this way was not going to help me detach and GAL. I spent too much energy being mad at myself.

It seems like you've received some great advice from many people.

Don't give up hope! I wish you well.

Take care.

Bob

Yes Zelda That is exactly how it feels, especially those days where wife is much colder and I start to doubt myself pretty hard.

Bottom line is I am just feeling sorry for myself, not using the gift of time wisely enough and not detaching as much as I should be already. I understand the concept, just not letting go.

Thanks Bob, I appreciate the sentiment!
