Withdrawal of OM and coping

[Hope4us]

Exactly ROOT.

This is what I meant by OP's getting as wrapped up in the fantasy as the WAS. But when push comes to shove, they run as fast as they can.

But they sure know what to say when a married person shows a little dissatisfaction with their marriage. And that's when it starts. And that's the whole point of the fantasy of an affair. It's not real. Is the OP going to change the WAS's bed pan when they're old and can't do it for themselves? Nope, they'll be telling the next victim the same crap.
