PM, you are a wise woman. Your H must be an IdIOT to leave you. In reading your sitch about your parents being married 40 years, I came from the same type of family.
I loved what you wrote, the only problem is that H and OW are being investigated at work right now. It seems to be the worst kept secret there. I had someone tell me there are rumors going around that H and OW were caught with their pants down. WTH.
Not sure if it was a work or at office but people know. If OW left the job even a few months ago there would be no case, but as most OW she is a greedy gold digger, wants her paycheck and his too. I like the advice you gave. Maybe I can word it another way.
Something to think about. Keep praying for each other.
