After 17 months of No Contact following a 5 year affair, I've regressed.

Kuma, being a daughter of a woman who worked very hard in her husband's business and who at the same time gave her 3 children a very good education, I am biased against SAHM, I admit that. As a matter of fact, I don't know any SAHM. All the women I know work to some extent, whether they have kids or not.

I think that women should always try to continue to do some paid work.

 

But it is not only the fact of being a SAHM. I think that whatever you do, you should do it as good as possible, you should try to excel.

The difference between xMM's W and myself is not only that she is a SAHM and I work fulltime. It is also the fact that I am fit, eat healthy, am a good cook, dress well, am able to book a holiday via the internet, call a repair guy when something is broken in my house. xMM's W calls him at work when the washing machine is broken so that xMM can call the repair man :rolleyes:. Go figure...

 

 

LOL I thought this guy was really wealthy from all you have said. Who has washing machines that need repairing? Don't you just replace and update your washer when it breaks? They certainly don't cost enough to bother calling in and scheduling a repair man. Odd.

 

It is so sad to me how much you seem to hate this woman that doesn't even care a bit about you and is happily living her life with her husband while you just rave and rave about her. I guess it is hard to stay dressed to the nines when you are home taking care of a handicapped daughter.

 

You really make yourself sound to be this amazing catch.

I work fulltime. It is also the fact that I am fit, eat healthy, am a good cook, dress well, am able to book a holiday via the internet, call a repair guy when something is broken in my house.

 

LOl do you really think it is that incredible to work, eat healthy, cook and call a repair man?? This is all too funny.:laugh:

also walkinthepark from your post about how wonderful you are compared to her it seems you may actually have a good self esteem. So why is it that someone with a high regard for themselves would allow themselves to be a mistress? It seems out of the norm.

I find this sentence to be an oxymoron.

 

Someone who is living a happy life doesn't need to have a prescription for anit-depressants, because they are not depressed.

 

People who are depressed need anti-depressants. Depressed = unhappy? Or am I missing something here?

 

EEG

 

It's a mental condition where the person can't be happy normally because they have the disease of depression. So ADs DO help them have a happy life. Without the meds they are depressed and with them they are not depressed, they are able to be happy. It's not someone's circumstances in life that cause them to need ADs (well, usually not... there's situational depression and sometimes people make such bad choices that they get depressed, or have such bad things happen to them that they get depressed... but usually it's just a mental condition that is uncontrollable... the person would like to be happy and does everything happy people do, but just suffers from the disease).

 

I say this because my mom suffers from depression and I have read up a lot to understand and help her. She would NOT be living a happy life if it weren't for ADs. With ADs it is possible for her to live a happy life. Hope it makes more sense to you now. Sorry for the t/j.

Now you're being snarky.

 

And you proved my point.

 

So, thanks!

I'm sensitive about this issue and you are clearly not. And my mom proves that someone can be on ADs and live a happy life. So I proved my own point. Whatever, I was just trying to help you understand. Some people don't want to.

I'm really confused. How was star bright being snarky? That was a perfect explanation. This woman could be on AD's for any number of reasons not having to do with her marriage. She could have gone on AD's right after delivering their handicapped daughter. You don't judge someone's marriage because one of the spouses are on AD's.

I was snarky because I said "hope it makes more sense to you now." Sorry for being snarky Emerald. I just feel that you already knew the explanation but you like to look down on people that have depression. That's just how your post and subsequent post come across to me, and so I was snarky. But I'm not here to fight with anyone, I know that depression is an important issue, I have dealt with it with my mom for a long time, and if you don't want to recognize it as a real issue that people deal with then there is nothing I can do; being snarky sure doesn't help. So I am stepping away from this conversation because it's a threadjack and I also think it's just sad. :(

I live a very happy life. I am on meds because I have a disorder. I have a chemical imbalance that keeps my brain from producing some things that help control depression. I am not depressed and I don't want to be depressed either, hence the meds. And yes you are missing something or a lot depending on one's point of view.

Yep, you're missing the whole point.

 

Many laypeople don't get that depression has a physiologic basis (i.e. it's a medical condition with a physiological/chemical basis). Your post illustrates what many people (erroneously) think.

I found GEL's response to Star Bright actually rude and snarky.

 

People take Anti-Depressants for VARIOUS issues; not just depression. Maybe some should research things before making ridiculous claims

Google can be a friend ;)

 

Antidepressant medications are used to treat more than depression. Some antidepressants are used to help you sleep; others treat anxiety; and some can be used to help relieve certain types of pain. Antidepressants are theorized to act on neurotransmitters in the brain - the chemicals that transmit nerve impulses between neurons (brain cells). In most cases the drugs act to either increase the amount of neurotransmitters at the synapse (the gap between neurons) or to keep these chemicals around longer.

 

And it is evident that Walkinthepark is ... jealous/envious of the MM's wife -- maybe because she stays at home (which is normally something decided between the married couple) ;) and something an OW wouldn't be privy to. Especially in the case of a handicapped child. To make fun of someone usually implies jealousy, being envy of someone else or just plain not liking them. Even though walkinthepark believes she is so much better than everything than the wife.... didn't the MM stay with the wife? :confused: Maybe that is the cause of the bitterness, belittling and hatred towards the woman?

Hi Guys

 

Sorry I disappeared for a while, but as you know sometimes I get crazy busy with work/school stuff and its impossible for me to get around to posting.

 

I do have updates...plenty. I will start a new thread so that perhaps some other OW's or OM's can get a little solace ( i hope) from my story and not have to read through all these posts (or they can if they want of course)

 

Stay tuned for new thread in 3, 2, 1.....i think you'll be pleased with the news :-)
