I'm new and not expert. But I call BS on the "I'm scared to be in the room with you thing". My wife has thrown water on me, kick end scratched etc. He shouldn't put up with it. But he is not afraid.
He knows he can manipulatue you and that is what he is doing. It is the same thing with the OW. He is blaming you. You need to tell him that you are not OK with the OW. Now. Not in a week. Now. He MUST call it off. Hell if you are strong enough and he isn't you could offer to call her. My guess is any attraction she has for him will turn off the instant you tell her "Hi, um I'm ____'s wife. Yes, well ____ is sitting here and too scared to call you, so I just wanted to introduce myself and let you know ____ can't screw you any more. He is grounded."
Just a though.
Good luck!
