I read through your sitch Dave. Wow - you've really put in time!
Clearly, you've rebuilt yourself into a happy person. If you don't mind me asking, when she went back into an affair after what seemed like hope 1.5 yrs ago, why did you stay?
Do you think having your kids around is satisfying enough that sex and holding a woman is something that can be backburnered?
Good questions , it was almost 3yrs ago that W admitted to an affair and only a few weeks after that she left . Remember at that time I was in full DB mode trying to save my M . The Affairs were only the manifestation of other problems in both our Relationship and some personal issues my W had.
The answer to the second question is no , simple as that. But you do get used to being by yourself , with that you do need to make an effort to have a social life and I date but have tended to stick with women who are independent and not looking for a relationship.
