Ok, I think that I am ready to formulate a plan. I found out that W and OM have exchanged ILY's for the first time last night. Then they fought about that. I also found out that W thinks I am hot and a good provider but does not know for sure which of us me or OM she wants. She also said that she will be hurt for the first few times if I start to date but eventually she will get over it.
Now for the self 2X4: all of the above found through snooping.
No 2x4s from me. Good intel.
I agree with Gucci. After studying thousands of affairs, I've yet to see the "be the nicer guy" thing work. Not saying that it HASN'T; just I've never seen it.
I HAVE seen, many times, the "I respect myself too much to allow this crap behavior," strong-stance stuff work.
