Yes, that's exactly how EA's get started. My advice.....put thoughts of that man right out of your head if you still want your h and your marriage back. Now, if you are fed up, want a divorce and are ready to completely let your h go, then go for it. However, it's not a good practice to get involved in any way w/a third party while trying to repair your marriage. It creates more pain for the three of you in the long run and at the end of the day, you want a clean slate to start out w/and do not want to hurt another person in the process. I know, it's fun right now to have the attention of another, but you are traveling down a road that you can easily slip from and then it's too late. Be careful w/your interactions w/this Mr. CC.
Sophie, I know it's difficult, but you've got to keep the focus on you and your children. You are creating more anxiety for yourself looking for that call from your h or the lawyer. I seriously doubt that you'll hear from the lawyer for another week or so. If you don't, don't sweat it. Go on w/your life and do what you can to make things better for you and yoru children.
No one knows what your h will do after the gifts are opened. He may be there and then again, he could call w/an excuse not to come over. Time will tell...
The holiday is right around the corner....keep your eye on the holiday and doing things w/your family. Okay?
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
