Puppy - In preparation for our MC session today I'm prepared to say the following:
Look, I'm more than willing to face up to my own contributions to the problems in our marriage. But I'm not going to waste my time, nor my family's finances, nor will I disrespect YOU,MC, by not being completely honest with each other in these sessions. (then turn to wife) WW, thank you for being honest with me, at least, about the contact with OM itself. I, however, cannot live in an open marriage where my wife puts her friendship -- assuming I believe you, and we both pretty much know you're lying to me right now -- ahead of her marriage. Now we can either put this thing right out on the table, in all its glory, and call it what it is -- an emotional affair, at least -- and try to DEAL with it but I will not live in an open marriage. I will not tolerate you contacting OM in my presence or in our home. I will not tolerate you spending our family finances on having an affair. I will not tolerate you contacting OM.
If you continue contacting OM, I WILL file for D.
