LWTG,

Is your husband willing to send a "no-contact" letter to OW, and become fully transparent with you? Are you familiar with these concepts?

In over six years here, studying literally thousands of affairs, I've learned that their recidivism rate is EXTREMELY high if you don't:

- agree to no-contact, including sending a letter to OM/OW

- agree to full transparency, including changing phone #s, e-mail accounts, etc., and with your betrayed spouse having FULL ACCESS to the new ones, and to your cellphone

- immediately get into good MC or FT with a counselor well-trained in INFIDELITY

I would also strongly encourage you to get a full-panel STD test if you've had unprotected sex with your husband during the past six months, and to let him know that a condition of him resuming a sexual relationship with you is that HE get one, and that he show you a copy of the results. This should then be repeated six months later.

I'm happy for your encouraging news. This is your moment of maximum leverage and opportunity -- please handle it with care!
