Once again I am asking for advice and help... I am extremely concerned.
Okay. I have just come off the phone with my wife and we have directly discussed the OM.
Basically, I told her that I was really happy with how things have been progressing with her and me and that I very much want it to continue. I have expressed that I am happy to do so at a slow pace but that there is 'one thing' that is bringing me massive concern.
At that point she cut in the conversation and mentioned the OM's name.
She told me that she feels she has made decisions and that ultimately she 'cares about him' but 'not enough to be in a full relationship'. She said she still has 'issues' with the OM and that she is working to 'tie the loose ends'.
She told me that she wants to do it her 'own way' and is happy to talk to me as long as I do not 'sabotage things'. She said she does not want to tell him why she is feeling differently and in particular does not want him to know that she has been seeing me and is happy doing so.
Now... I actually feel extremely concerned after this brief phone call
. . . as well you should be. WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!!!
