LO, I don't know if I am piecing. From H's action and our conversation and the fact that he did pack up the family and moved back here to get away from OW so that I feel better, hopefully I am piecing.

Having said that, if I may be frank, you are not in piecing yet. Your H is still meeting OW and he has not committed to you and M yet. My H has. He has his doubts and he refused to just cut off OW contact completely (insisted to "let her down slowly"), but in other ways he is very nice to me, and spent effort in making me feel good. We are having problems discussing our issues because he is not ready (I suppose since OW is still in the picture), but we are having more deeper conversation. Your H, as far as I can tell, is moving slowly towards you. Watch his actions, not the stuff he said in argument. I have seen my H in that phase. Can't let OW go, yet don't want to let YOU go (has he mentioned anything like getting worried that YOU will leave?)

As for long term committment, I have learnt to not trust anything till it's done. When he actually starts booking the vacation three months out, then be glad.

Again, I see hope in your stich because it mirrors mine so much. So hang in there and GAL. GAL is really the best thing for me. Everytime I GAL and discuss about MY own future, H turns around some more.
