he told her many times he couldn't leave OW because he didn't want to hurt her. Hello??? What about the pain they cause their spouse of many years?
That's exactly the kind of garbage my H said tonight! He said he couldn't leave OW because he'd made a commitment to get her and her kids into this house. He said he has a responsibility to them -- he couldn't just say, *Okay, now you have to leave.*
Yeah, you can, H! It's kind of like telling your wife you've been with for 14 years *I love you but I'm not in love with you,* or how about *It's not you, it's me,* or *We just weren't meant to be!* It's actually very easy to hurt people you care about -- you should be pretty good at it by now.
