I posted to you a few days ago that much of what you learn here will be counterintuitive.

The stuff that's actually worth doing is counterintuitive.

Expose W's affair to her family. Tell them calmly and matter of factly and end the conversation.

Yes.

Do you think Tiger Woods is taking his wife more seriously now that his infidelities are out in the open, or less seriously?

How much experience does your attorney have in saving marriages?

Is your attorney a counsellor specialising in recovering marriages?

I'm sure your attorney is an expert on legal matters.

I understand that Quart9, but that may change in time. You have many more extreme emotions to cycle through yet.

Still, you must file first, expose your wife's cheating and protect yourself.

Your W will already have done this - at least to herself to justify her cheating. If you don't expose the affair to W's family first she will do this again and make you look very bad to them.

We have all been there with this Quart9

Puppy is right.

OM W is still his W and she has the right to know the truth. This is about OM W as well, and if your W tells her family about OM first she will spin and manipulate the situation and facts mercilessly.

Hang in there.
