Thanks for the comments guys.

WDID, W never mentioned talking to anyone about what had happened to her, and I doubt she did. Kind of her "I don't need anyone" attitude.

Would she ever? Doubt it again. I've read enough to know that something like that happening to her could be where she gets her need for male validation. And I'm assuming here, but I can see how it probably played a part in her A. A stressful time comes around with our relocation and her really not liking her new job and along comes the predator and, like Break says, fills her up with so much confidence and "love and affection" that it's like a drug that she couldn't resist.

So now she's convinced herself because she doesn't get that euphoric high from me, that she must not love me.

Things were really good yesterday. But I just wonder if I'm fighting a losing battle. Will W EVER realize that what she's looking for is unattainable, but will keep looking because she got that "high" from OM? Will she keep looking and bounce from relationship to relationship when the "high" wears off? How long do I give her to come to the realization that what she has right in front of her is "real" and not what she's looking for?

I know I can't convince her myself. I know she has to come to the conclusion on her own. So I guess I just need to continue to be the rock in our relationship and when I can't be the rock any longer, end things and let her decide what she wants to do with her life.
