1000ships, thanks so much for your insight. You made some very valid points.
I really like this one: But now she will have a permanent reminder of her adulterous sin. Let it fester. That is...let it fester - if she has any conscience.
And I will order all of the books that you suggested.
WH & I still have a very strong bond. I know that he trusts me and values my opinion. I also see that he is hurting and definitely doesn't seem happy (He should be; he got what he wanted, right?)
But I have to watch that "mommy" thing. He does have the tendency to use me. Yesterday he attempted to talk to me about the OW and how SHE is feeling and what SHE (poor thing) has to go through - I cut him off and said that I don't care about her.
The being in business together is a challenge. It keeps the communication open and the DB going, however I don’t want him to “cake eat”.
