I tried to tell him in a VERY roundabout way (w/o actually saying it)that he may think leaving everything and starting over will solve his problems but that they WILL follow him unless he works out his issues. I know he needs to figure all this out on his own.
Stop doing this. I speak from experience. For example, my H's OW would contact me, lie to me, tell me blah blah blah. I knew she was lying. Then later it would be black and white proof she was a little lying actress scumb bag....I would point it out to him, and it was clear as day, how could he not believe me? How could he still think the world of her? This is solid black and white proof!!! Was H crazy?
Well, there are two reasons I couldn't tell him anything. One, I couldn't tell him anything. I was the last person who could convince him or talk to him. The LAST person on earth as a matter of fact. And then, she was perfect and wonderful and no one could tell him crap about her, even his good friends who also tried. But in the end, I was right and he told me. As a matter of fact in their last conversation he told her she was a liar and something else quite colorful. But the moral of the story....he had to get there on his own.
