We both just have to ride it out, and hope for the best. I suppose when we restrict them from seeing thier OM's, the euphoria intensifies.
We have to block out the inevitable, and let them experiment. If it is just a bandaid solution to their problems, the more interaction they have with them, the more probability that it may fizzle out.
Also, with my W's OM, he is only just turned 27. I just wonder how long he will continue with my W after they consumate their R (or how long he will wait).
She has been having ongoing problems with excessive bleeding for several weeks (she had the same thing a few years ago, don't know the exact cause other than stress), so I don't think that they would have had an opportunity to take that final step (I could be wrong).
She is very shy and embarrassed about her body (I love it, but she is self conscious of her stretch marks after having DD). I have been her only sexual partner, it will be harder for her to take that next step with someone else, regardless of her feelings towards him.
This is my analogy. I think it is easier for a person (mainly women) to commence another PA, if she has had previous partners before marriage. My W has only had me for 17 years, what do you think? Maybe I am being naive.
