Yesterday I got crabby with H over our usual issues. But then I stopped thinking about what she did to me that was not ok, and started thinking about how much I love her. She got really hopeless about us. That hurts more than anything. She did that on the weekend [...]

5/16/06 and Ogilvie’s Syndrome

I’m having a hard time with what I feel are H’s “demands,” what’s ok and not ok for me to do in order for her to still love me and not go sleep with someone else. One of them was that I was on the computer sometimes when she came home and didn’t get [...]

I just found these pages that Heather wrote in a journal we were going to share. I found out about 6 mos. ago she wanted to be with other women most of the time we were married, except for the first 6 mos. This is two years into our marriage.

Another entry in a journal kept for Heather and I, for us to read later. This entry is by Heather. As I try to type I’m shaking so hard that I can barely write. This is the only other entry in this journal, none by me, just 2 by her.
