I'm so proud of how far you've come in such a short time. However, I am worried that your post makes it sound like your use of the Internet is responsible for the end of your relationship. While that may be the case in some instances, I think nothing can be further from the truth in your case. One of the benefits of social networking is to explore the boundaries of life and to then reflect back on our own situations with a different lens. I think that your relationships with ZJ and others in Plurkville helped you see that your husband's choices were not conducive to a healthy marriage or family life. You did what you thought was best for your daughter and for you. That said, there are no mistakes in life -- only opportunities to learn. You are amazing and I can't wait to see you in February!

That was heavy, RLM. I’m so so glad for you that you finally saw how much you were worth, and how much your daughter’s worth, and left your husband. You deserve so much better. I’m sure it’s a long road to healing, and a lot of work…I’m sending you a huge wraparound hug as you work on making a new life for the both of you. We’ll all be here along the way.
