I've never posted to you but have been reading this thread for awhile now. We are similar in age and in circumstances, although I have no children.
My H is also spending like there's no tomorrow with THREE new credit cards (in his name thank goodness). He is truly addicted to his OW and it's devastating to me. I've gone completely black since August now - Michele is a genius - this has helped me tremendously. I'm going to update my thread soon and you're welcome to reply.
Your Robert Browning poem and explanation is beautiful and profound. Irony is, my H was a philosphy major and is a college professor now - he of all people would understand this poem and I fear (and pray) that he will soon experience a "sudden jolt back to reality".
Thank you for your wise comments and stay strong.
