If I had told my H in January "I'm not sharing you with anyone" he would have just laughed and would have said "I'm really not your H anymore" and he may have filed if I tried to push him to end that crap, but for sure, he would have continued that relationship regardless of me and my feelings. In her mind, like my H in January, you are not married.


I agree RSF - my H is in this place now of "don't hassle me over OW - we are separated I can do what I want" and I have no power to stop it. But anything I can do to keep the final D papers away I will.

We have two choices as I see it: they continue with OP while legally still married, or they continue with OP while legally D. EIther way, they consider themselves free to pursue this - I would want to at least hold on to the legal right to M. Like Stronger, this may pass and you both will be so glad you did nothing final.

That's what I intend to do anyhow.


Me: 42
Him: 43
