Your post Neecy is almost exactly what one of my best friends told me (my confidant Deb's husband). He said that he's never forgiven his mom for having an affair and leaving his dad, brothers and sisters.
He's reconciled with his mom and her affair hubby, but he's told me it's never going to be the same relationship with his mom that it should/could be. His older brother didn't talk to his mom for YEARS. It took him a number of years and probably only happened because Deb kept pushing him to try to reconcile with her.
And that's the part that pains me to my core. If our marriage doesn't make it, I can live with that. I really do want WW to be happy. But I WILL NOT let this current POS be involved in my kids lives without them knowing just what a piece of work he is. If we divorce and she and OM don't work out, I could be ok with her finding someone else as I'm sure I will (after I work through my trust issues), but I will never be ok with her making it with this worthless excuse of a man.
Edited to add: Call me stupid after the way she's treated me, but I hope exposing to my kids snaps her out of her fog and we end up making it in the end.
Ok, gotta run now. WW is getting out of bed and I need to shower and get ready for the day. And I'm not looking forward to it.
