BA,

My main point (that you continually seem to attack) is that affairs are HIGHLY addictive, it's a physiological fact, and they should be dealt with accordingly. Continued contact with the affair partner greatly reduces the opportunity for successful reconciliation, and in fact sets the withdrawal "clock" back to 0:00:00 every time you have contact.

No, not all wayward spouses drive across country wearing diapers. Some just suddenly lose all interest in all of their children's activities. Others engage in risky, unprotected sexual activity, and then knowingly expose their spouses to disease. Some suddenly lose all interest in their faith. Some lie to their own children, and to their own parents. Others put their entire careers at risk, just to maintain the affair. Some empty their family's bank accounts and run up the family credit cards, to facilitate the affair.

And those are just a few examples off the top of my head, just from recent threads on these boards. I could give others.

You seem to be oversensitive to any characterization I give about wayward spouses, even when I'm purposely NOT directing any of it at you personally. As I've said before, this is your issue, not mine, but I would appreciate it if you stop attacking me for presenting my opinions.
