Exposing at EA

[Still Waters]

Thanks, Pearl. I know that it seems like I've been a rock 24/7, but believe me I've had lots of down times. Lots of sleepless nights, tears, and plenty of anger (which I always take out on the punching bag at my gym). So I have been dealing with the roller coaster of emotions as they come up. They only time I really clamp them down is when I see or talk to my W. That's when I whip out the Superman cape.

And I'm sure she'll continue to lie even though I have the cell phone records. But at least she'll know, somewhere deep inside the fog, that her little fantasy is nothing more than a sordid affair. May take weeks or months for it to sink in, but I think it will.

I know that Marriage Builders recommends exposing to everyone in the cheating spouse's support group. What do people on here think? I'd never tell my family since they probably wouldn't ever forgive my W. But do I tell my W's family? Her close friends (who I am almost positive don't know. From what I can tell, she's only been talking to about 3 of her friends about the A.) I know that she leans heavily on her friends and family for support, and she has been playing the role of the victim in this whole separation.
