    Daska, it wasn't. I firmly believe that the poster objected to a comment made by someone else which has since been deleted.

    I too hope that Mark isn't resting on his laurels

    I didn't see the personal abuse thankfully, and daska, there is absolutely no way I'll be resting on my laurels.

    Thanks for the kind thoughts.

    Sorry Daska

    It wasn't you. Read thread from beginning and got so annoyed with a poster on end of first page that I didn't see there were 6 other pages of posts since.

    So my Indignance is a bit out of date I'm afraid and certainly wasn't aimed at you. I'm actually amazed that someone hadn't reported the abuse and the posts and the poster had not been deleted by now!

    There is a report abuse button for anyone to email the abuse in future, but looks like they have finally decided to get a life an "jog on" as a previous poster had suggested.

    Sorry if you felt that was aimed at you daska. It was not my intention :A

    This is really positive. I am sure that she will still have 'off' days; don't despair. You've obviously both started a lot of healing, but like any injury there are days when the pain seems to come back. Just a bit more loving and tomorrow will be a new day.

    Good luck Mark.

    I hope it goes well for you. It is an inspiration to hear. I'm going through something similar at the moment with no hope of reconcilliation. And, no, it wasn't me that did the dirty, before our old friend crawls out of the woodwork again! There was no recent abuse, it was the poster from the first two pages that got me riled!

    Hi fairdo.

    I actually look back and laugh at those posts now. I think the poster's ignorance should be a matter of permanent record!

    What ever you do, When you have another arguement, which you will as it's only human, Don't throw into her face that you were the only one willing to work on the relationship for 10 weeks. Brush it under the rug, never to be spoken about again. :)

    I am sitting here with tears in my eyes.., read the whole thread and very glad for you Mark. Was in a similiar situation.., and same thing happened. Its definitely not easy, but its worth it. As posts have said, its not over, there may be bad days when u hurl (verbally) things at each other .., even a year down the line. But just keep remembering your history (its so important) and how much u love each other.., and u'll get thru. In a few years u may even see what's happened as awful at the time, but it strengthened the relationship in the end.
