I read that article and have read others as well. I guess it depends on how we want to view things, but I find myself concentrating on the articles that seem to suggest people experience regret after divorce (in cases where there is no abuse, addiction or habitual infidelity).

I am especially comforted by the statistic I have come across that suggests remarriage to the affair partner is very unlikely, and when it does occur, the divorce rate is very high.

I'm still trying to detach the best I can. It's tough though. I still get emotional, usually once or twice a day. I guess that's part of the grieving process.
My W moved out 11 months ago, and I still get emotional on almost a daily basis. I continue to lovingly detach and GAL, and am also coming to grips that this will end in D.

Good to hear you are doing well.
