What have you been doing to GAL? Go running, hit a gym bag, yell, scream, whatever to get the stress out.

Then get a photo of your kids and look at it. Really look at it and vow to be the greatest dad to them ever. Hold them in your heart. That's how you will survive

I've destroyed everything... I've tried to contain the jealousy. She is dating someone - I asked questions... Next she is telling me that reconciliation is off of the table- to move on.
All four of us are Having dinner tonight with the Boys god father, he is a close friend and is also the priest who married us. Should be interesting
It's over. I've destroyed my chances... The despair and hopelessness is overwhelming

Her boyfriend called while she was here...
While we had company. I said "why... How can she do this"
I told her that she tore our family apart for her own selfish reasons - She then said reconciling is off of the table...

I've left a message for my therapist... Trying to move the appt closer to get some meds... Called the veterans crisis line to talk me down. Hanging on by a thread. As dysfunctional as it sounds- I can't imagine life without her. Too painful. Gal is a distraction, but not my cure. Right now she is walking n talking to our friend& uncle- the catholic priest who married us. He was here during the episode.

Good enough. Thanks. I knew what I was supposed to do... Then it was like an out of body experience- I'm watching & hearing myself ( no control at all)
I'm just going to avoid her... Buy her out, change the locks. Not much left to do now . She is a hurtful monster.

man, stay calm and confident.
Be her friend, best friend if you can. Talk with her about everything including the OM. Maintain manly attitude. Do not change locks or anything. If you have luck the OM will get jealous and will disappoint her. Do not make the mistake which is supposed to be made by him.

You are divorced and do not have the right to be jealous.
Meet her as frequent as you can. Prove her that you are better than other men. You are different.

You haven't distroyed your chances.
Dating is nothing. You have to believe.

Even if she have sexual interaction with the om she still might be disappointed and to want to come back to you. Are you ready to accept and love her after such events.

Act friendly, think strategically. It is a war and you know wars are being won with patience and intellect.

Keep in mind how the Trojan war has been won :-)
