No, I am not contacting family members and telling them about the PA. They did know about the EA, and that we were having troubles. The OW & her H live close to where my first H and I lived and are still friends with my sons. Their oldest and my sons (22 & 25) were in school together, sports etc. It is a small town, I guess I am not surprised.
My S22 came out and asked me. I won't lie to him. I am tired of the lies.
On the other hand my MIL called me today (while H was out) to see how I was doing and to offer support.
I will get thru this. One breath at a time.
Most of us are about as happy as we make up our minds to be.
