It is not your fault. Did you force him into the A? Did you betray him? You stood for your M and Family. Hang in there honey. You are forcing his hand in a tough love way. I am praying for you.
Puppy, You seem so wise man. Can you read my thread in separated and give me your $0.02?
Eagle,
I just caught up on your thread. In my opinion, your wife is having an affair. Possibly and EA, but also could be a PA. I got that impression from your first 2-3 posts, and I'm stunned that no one else picked up on your counselor's intuition in this regard.
It's not the end of the world -- many of us have survived them, and are here with better marriages. But if she IS seeing another man, then there are some techniques you'll need to apply.
Your wife also seems to be a real Entitlement Princess. I know -- I'm married to one as well.
I'd suggest you start a thread on this, the "Infidelity" forum. While some DBing techniques are the same regardless of the reasons for a spouse wanting to divorce, adultery does bring an entirely different dynamic to the picture.
I don't want to hijack Sara's thread, so I'll wait for you to start one here. I'm never on the "Separated" forum.
