CL,

I will not be a bystander, and allow this behavior to continue without some response.


But you did allow inappropiate behavior without any consequences being stated.

Quote:
We'll wait and see how she responds to my email.


Doesn't matter she already stepped out.

Quote:
and to focus on logical consequences to her behavior


Logic isn't going to work. Her feelings are guiding her, you need to lead. Your wife doesn't respect you. She sees you as weak - emotionally weak. Why would she be attracted to a man that would let his woman sleep with another man?

Quote:
I can get her to respect the boundaries--she has too much to lose.


Really, she just walked all over you. She really wanted you to stand up and fight for her -that's why she called to tell you what she was doing. Being a Nice Guy won't work.

How long has thing been going on in your M?

Retain faith that you will prevail in the end, regardless of the difficulties and at the same time confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.
