My W never responded to the papers, but I am not pressing for a default judgement. It is best to keep things amicable if it does go all the way to a D.

And how in the world could I ever trust him to not cheat on me again and keep it a secret for 5 months then leave again?
Cross that bridge when and if it comes, but dont worry about it too much now. I have the same question about future trust, but I am not dealing with it until I see that W wants to come back first. One step at a time. Another step would be her regaining acceptance with my family and friends, but once again, I am not worrying about it now.
I hear you on getting the lunches and kids out the door in the morning. Every day is a coaching session trying to get my boy to move along. He is a reader and moves at a glacial pace.

No one has said that you must stay on the bridge of reconciliation. That is obviously a very personal decision. What is being said is that before you wander off to a new bridge that you finish up the life you are presently living. Entering a new relationship while still married is not the best way to begin a new journey.
