This is parallel to my main thread, which will lock soon anyway, but with the pain of this past week, this thought has obviously crossed my mind (many times), and I'd like to get everyone's thoughts on it.
You all know my situation. What would have happened if I just started acting more manly, more lovingly, been more leading/wooing/cherishing, with the fetching Mrs. Chocolateeyes, without first confronting her with the e-mail? (for the sake of argument, since we really still don't know full situation with OM, let's assume early stages of EA, no PA).
Would such an approach have had a chance? I'd especially be interested in hearing from the LD women on this one.
I've also gotta think that the thought has crossed my WIFE'S mind -- "Choc., why couldn't you just have shut up and DONE this, instead of calling me (and all of my issues and insecurities) out with the e-mail and the lunch?!"
