What is wrong with me?
I dont know why I feel the way I do. My H consumes my mind. Why do I even want him? Why does he seem so special to me after what he's done? I should hate him with passion. But instead I love him with this passion that I can not explain. I think of him constantly as if its a new realationship. I want to touch him, kiss him, be intamite with him in any way I can. When I am holding him all I can think of is how much I love and adore him. This thinking consumes so much of my thoughts and the rest of the time I am hurting because of what he did and worring if he is still going to leave me for the OW. What is wrong with this picture. Why am I chacing him around like a love struck crazy person? It makes no sence...Thought I was stronger than this. It really makes me look pathedic because I know he dont feel the same way I do. When I am at work ny anxiety keeps rising until I talk to him. Then it is like I have my drug and I feel better. I get the feeling from him that this might be alittle to much for him. Is this me just proving to myself that I can be sexual and giving in a relationship...because of his A it made me dought myself. Or is it a subcontious goal to have him (win him) instead of her having him? Which I have no control over anyways.. Maybe I feel responcible for the affair (which I know I am not) so I am trying to do everything different compared to before so he won't choose someone else again.
I think I will attempt to back off some (if possible). I feel like I might push him away. I really do feel like I am loosing my mind:( I just wish I could go back in time to before the deception happened. But that can't happen.

There is nothing wrong with you. Something like this can make our mind go in strange directions. You nearly lost your husband and perhaps before it happened you had forgotten why you loved him so much.
Try to embrace the good feelings without smothering him. The anxiety will not go away for some time, but it will get easier. To attempt to rebuild, to find he strength to make that decision, you must love him a great deal. Try to hold on to some of that love, you may need it down the line.
It is normal to feel madness. Strength to you.
