I can't help but think that you are trying every approach in the book to somehow use the kids to get your wife to come back....
Being on the internet, it is very easy to formulate what YOU say happened and why versus what really happened and why you did what you did this morning..
Are you being honest with yourself? It sure looks like just another back door attempt to push, pursue and control on your part...
You leave your wife and have an affair and now you want to tell us (me) that you are suddenly Mr. Dad of the year and "what is best for the kids" etc. etc..
My instinct says that you are making this an issue so that we will tell you that "yes, stand up for your kids, yes, you can't let this happen and your wife needs to wake up"
So.. If I sense that from you and I don't even know you.. Do you not think your wife would see this as more control and more pursuing and trying anything to get her to "see the light on what a low life the OM is and what a low life's his kids are?
I guess I don't get it....
I really feel like I'm screwing this up and I don't mean to and I don't want to. I feel like I cannot see this situation clearly. I feel like I am not making good decisions. You may well be right about everything you say above.
I really feel lost here.
