I can relate to that (mis-)conception. I was the exact same way!

Oh, I can too! I think most of can relate to it. But how long did you go through it before you realized that your problem was trying to convince your spouse to "feel" a certain way, and their problems were things they would have to work out on their own?
I struggled with the SSM aspects of this dynamic for YEARS (and still do). The affair-busting, however, and the general DBing, I picked up on very quickly once I discovered her adultery.
