Thanks for commenting on this! I have been struggling with this also. 23 y.o. OW looks like (and obviously acts like)a "trailer trash" ho. Sorry... I don't usually talk about people like that, but it is true. The number that did on my self esteem... I was a mess! I've never heard that before about "affairing down" (is that how you put it?) How reassuring. H and I have actually talked about that, and his IC has talked with him about that too.... it's like he was sabotaging his life. She would have literally ruined him, in every way. Our kids would never have respected him or her, nor would his family, friends, etc. He would likely have lost his career, respect in the community etc.
Anyway.... thanks for commenting!
And Pearl, we better hear about an amazing time when you get back!
