lilmopeep Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 I just want to say I have been the OW twice. One was for a long 5 years and one was a matter of months. Looking back on it from the other side (it has been 20 years ago now) I am glad that I went through the pain of it, and know that in my case, it opened my eyes to what I really wanted my life to be like. As much as I thought at the time that I wanted the MMs to leave their wives to be with me, in hindsight, I am very glad that they did not. I now realize that my true self never really wanted the commitment of marriage and family. Here I am out the other side satisfied with how things turned out (or did not turn out) after. While I do feel like I loved each of them, I know I am beyond all of it, and would never make that choice again. My life is simple now and I like it that way! Merry Christmas to all that are struggling in these relationships. I know what it is like. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Oldspiceywolf Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I appreciate my experience as an OM. It taught me alot about life, relationships, and what I actually wanted for myself. I know I don't want to betray a partner and honestly I had a good time, I never felt that kind of emotion, I'm a much stronger man now Link to post Share on other sites
