Root, you always have good advice. How long did it take for your husband to end his affair? My husband loves me tried to end it came home left again yesterday. He couldnt take missing her and being here. He is a very weak selfish guilt ridden person right now. He is also extremely confused. I thought I was okay and now I am here again alone having to be the one to back off again. He told me that not seeing me and hearing from me made him miss me so much. So I know it works. I really do not believe it will last there with OW and that he will be at his mothers before too long. I do not think he will be able to handle not hearing from me. What do I do in the mean time? How do I detach? How long do I give it now before I do some inviting? Should I give it a good week or two of hardly hearing from me or give it a few days and when he calls say next time you are out lets go for a bike ride? I am just not sure what I should do. I have friends that said dont call him dont text him dont be cooking for him they have told me to back completely off and let him get his belly full of her. Let him see that it isnt working with her even when you are out of the picture. They said he will be so depressed and missing me and she wont be able to handle that. What do you think about that?
