W8ing, I understand where you are coming from, as I have been getting conflicting advice from different people. The biggest problem I have is that my W has already filed for D, and she is going to break up the family for her indiscretion. This D is going to profoundly affect my kids, and my W says that she wants to keep them out of this! This is why I am struggling with what to do. If it was just a fling and there was a chance that she would reconcile, I would deal with it. She is telling everyone that WE decided to D 2 years ago and were just waiting for the kids to complete high school. This is where I am getting ticked off. When people ask me about it, I tell them the truth. Problem is, my W is seen as a wonderful person in this community, and I am sure everyone believes her. Got to go. Let me know what you think.
