Probably. For a ton of reasons. And I hope it is, so we can move on to whatever the next stage will be. He was devastated and depressed for a long time when they split 20+ years ago, so I'm sure it will send him into a tailspin this time around too.
Oh--did you mean the A will be short-lived, or the damaged relationships with inlaws and friends?
THe affair COULD be short-lived, but I meant the damaged relationship with inlaws and friends. I think they will be supportive of him for awhile, and then they will be sick of his silly behavior, see it for what it is. And then they will support you.
That's how it went with my ex. His family didn't talk to me for a year and a half. Then the situation did a 180 for most of them.
