Puppy - I agree. I never ran to someone else when this all began.

I assume now I'm in a holding pattern now. I'm focused on GAL and I'm cool and friendly with W.

I followed through on consequences and intel is out the window now. W doesn't use my computer anymore, won't be seen dead with cell phone and has any other evidence well hidden but at this point I don't think I need anything else.

Now we live in the same house and have almost no R. I told her to leave but she won't and this woman can be very stubborn. I know I should probably leave but I just can't bring myself to do that with D in the picture.

I love W but I'm not sure this is reparable.

I need to think of some more ways to GAL. I already work out regularly, sing in my band and have been doing some volunteering as well as spending as much time with D as I can. I find though that the weekends are the toughest.

I'm looking for some advice.

W is in Las Vegas with a female friend (but who really knows) and I know she's seen her own lawyer. Amazing how easy that was to find on a notebook in the office but every trace of her cell phone records is gone.

Anyway, I'm wondering on my next steps. Should I be dark? W has been sitting with me watching TV at nights, came down and shared dinner with me a few times. As much as I've detached these are the circumstances where I'm not sure if I'm making matters worse or better.

W never committed to ending EA and is likely hiding the contact now. No one has sided with me from W family or friends so is it 'dark' time until W starts doing the work? Are there other consequences beyond what I've done?

Or should I be making myself the better option and spending time with W etc.

Anyone with any thoughts please share.

I might have missed something in your threads, but did you actually find concrete evidence of OM?

Cell phone records with late night hour plus phone calls to OM while out of town or when I was away, multiple calls per day as soon as I left for work or just before I returned or when W was going to or coming from the Gym, text that stated 'if I wasn't in a legally binding contract I'd swear you were made for me', confirmed ride out of town on business trip by OM that W lied about.

I didn't get anymore as when W found recorder in her car that someone left there she stopped getting cell bills to house, hid phone and stopped using home computer.

So did you tell her she needed to end it with the OM? All this information isn't going to help you unless you know how to use it.

I did tell her that - I said 'I won't live in an open marriage' 'I want you to end your infidelity with OM'

I exposed to her family and best friend (already turned against me). I asked her to leave and she said no.

Then I would say it's time to kick it up a notch.

That's what I was thinking but not sure what that means.

What was her answer to you after you told her you weren't going to be in an open marriage?
