You are aware that when your H finds out what you have been doing--talking to OW and possibly snooping--that will not bode well for you.
You are trying to control the situation on many fronts. You are treating him like a child as well. He will run faster than you can count on one hand. Unless your H likes to be mothered and smothered, this will not work.
Think about this--do you really want your H back? If so, do not do these things.
I do not know your beliefs but I am of the belief that this is something you cannot fix.
One needs to allow their Maker to do the work while we be still.
