This may sound strange, but I still have hope that the XGF relationship will work out. I still love her, she still loves me. Anything is possible. If you knew the whole story, you would probably see that we have BOTH cheated and lied at different times. We are very close as far as where we stand on 'the path' and I still have faith. Never say never, my friend.

Well, I never wrote never, but if there isn't something akin to a prophecy in this statement, then I'm even more mistaken than I thought.
Human behavior is inexplicable. And, yes, in the realm of human relationships, the word never should never be used.
How about unlikely?
Some years ago, I remember feeling the same way that you do. Eventually, my exwife did come back, but there was no trust there. If I'd known then what I know now, I would have never attempted a reconciliation. We merely stalled the inevitable for another year, and fell back into those same poisonous patterns we swore up and down we'd try to avoid.
Re: What a tangled web we weave- confession Lumpy: Gotta throw my two cents in with JR I'm afraid. It gets to a point where the damage is not fixable. There's only so much emotional pain you can pile on someone before they break. From the situations you've described It sounds to me like the three of you have already exceeded the limit.
Re: What a tangled web we weave- confession crushedman: I understand all your viewpoints. Truth be told, I would be writing the same thing if I were in your shoes. At the end of the day I have to trust my instincts. They are this:
XGF will go through a difficult trial. At the end of it all, she will see that what I did was similar to things she has done to me in the past. She will realize that what I did, while TERRIBLE, did serve to balance the power of the relationship back to zero. And then we will be together again. It may take some time, though.
Is it unlikely? Absolutely. But I still believe.
Re: What a tangled web we weave- confession lost enigma: Ok, so you're justifying your actions because she did the same thing in the past?
It seems as if it is over. I mean you both cheated, where is the need to stay together?
