Sara,

He needs to man up and face OW. If she hits him he can call the police and file a report. But what kind of man is that scared of getting hit by a woman?

If he is serious about getting your marriage back on track, then the two of you need to do serious work to rebuild what has been destroyed. You can find help at a Retrouvaille weekend. Check the website, http://www.helpourmarriage.org for places and dates. There are a lot of weekends coming up in June and July, so now is the time to book it. You can read some about Retrouvaille on my thread, Sara's Place, and if you search under retrouvaille in the history on this website. In the meantime, make your husband work for you. Do not give in easily. Check out SallyM's thread for how she is dealing were her sorry H. People don't value anything they get with little effort. So don't let him just come home and everything goes back to the way it was before. A weekend at Retrouvaille will teach you both how to value your relationship and take care of it. It is the turning point where the bad in the relationship ends, and the good begins. There are follow-up or post sessions that continue to build on what you learned over the weekend. Retrouvaille has a very high success rate of healing marriages. If you do want this marriage, don't drag your feet.
