WAW and the law of attraction

[Puppy Dog Tails]

Frace,

The purpose of the meeting would be to allow your wife to speak to you, and for you to listen. Since it's about 90% likely that she will LIE to you, our further purpose is for her to do just that, so you can gain credibility with her family.

It is NOT for you to make any concessions whatsoever, nor for you to explain your actions, other than a (if she asks you why you exposed to OM's W) "I decided that she had a right to know the truth" or (if she asks you why you've done all of this) "Everything I've done, I've done either to protect myself or to fight for my marriage."

Everything else, we can cover in due time.

Frace,
(if she asks you why you exposed to OM's W) "I decided that she had a right to know the truth"

So, do I hold of OM's W to have this chat with my W? Again, I'm trying my best to contact her but it's easter holiday over there. God knows when she or her sister will check their messages. Again, trying.

Also, I'm just asking this question in case she wants to put an end to this right now

"Well our marriage is over, sorry you found out that way".

Would a:
"Ok, that's your decisions, I'll deal with mine. For me, it's not over and will fight for my marriage". How does that sound?

[Puppy Dog Tails]

No. As everyone else has said above, your first order of business is to expose the affair to the other man's wife.

Sorry, just to be clear. NO CONTACTING WIFE until OM W definitely has been exposed. Not even for appearances with my W family.

Am I right?

[Puppy Dog Tails]

I don't think it's a dealbreaker one way or the other, Frace. But yes, I would try to avoid it. You can tell your wife (and her family) "We will talk soon; I'm just not ready yet."

If it takes more than a week for you to get in touch with OM's W, then you're going to have to meet with your wife at some point, just to hear her out. You probably won't be able to believe a word that comes out of her mouth, but your shared history together earns her at least that much at this stage.

We never discussed confronting other man.
I do have his contact details. Is it even worth doing that?

Frac -

Just sending good thoughts your way. Are you doing anything fun yet???

[FormelyknownasF]

Well, not really. To be honest I've been putting all my energy in this.
I know it's wrong. I'm trying to change that but it's just that this whole
thing has been so sudden. I had to tell my family yesterday we were separated. Didn't mention the affair. They were crushed but very supportive.
It was tough still.

Now, I've found out W is also hiding from me on Facebook now. That means she's angry I guess. Or nervous of what I might find in her profile.

Trying to think of other stuff. Finding it hard.

Actually, this is good. You don't need to see or hear from her on FB. You need to GAL and stick to the plan. We've all been there and I saw my divorce through...wouldnt wish it on anyone.

[FormelyknownasF]

Not very encouraging to read that though, S.
Sorry about your divorce.
