Is this the end of my marriage?

[P17]

P,

I didn't even make it halfway thru your post, sorry. You can sum the entire thing up with:

"My wife things she's in love with OM, and is telling other people that. What should I do?"

NEWS FLASH: EVERY wayward spouse thinks they've found their soulmate. It's the LOOOOOVE chemicals talking.

Do this: Google "PEA love addiction brain", and do 30 minutes of reading. Then come back and tell us what you think.

Puppy

P.S. My wife said/did just about every one of the things you describe.

PDT,

I've been trying to refrain from replying to get emotions out of the way but it's not working as yet.

I've read about the PEA and it's quite clear what she's suffering from - the euphoria of the OM. Something I missed from my post last night is that my W said to my D's mother that the OM is the complete opposite of me. That is classic WAS behaviour.

I also read what I'm feeling just now and to recognise it as a chemical reaction which does make it a little easier.

I was also reading about obsessive love and people who are effected by this and use it to go from one relationship to another. I think this is my W. Probably a little of me is the obsessive bit at the moment although I think that's more natural than what she is feeling.

I just feel like giving up to be honest and just filing for D on the grounds of adultery to let me move on. No matter what I try, I simply cannot detach and that is the part that is hurting me the most. If I could detach from her I think things would be easier and I would just ride this out.

But I don't want to make any decisions today.
