It is one thing to have a one night stand with someone and then realize it was a big mistake.
I even get the office fling thing.
Things happen, it doesn't make it right, but I get it.
The difference is with MLC the MLC'er is so screwed up mentally, they truly believe they are in love, and just like a wayward teen they feel they have to follow their heart.
They have no regard for who they hurt or what the consequences are. MLC is a mental illness.
With that being said, having an affair is not OK for anyone, regardless of their mental health.
Boundaries have to be enforced and the LBS has to protect themself, financially and emotionally.
There can be no testimony without a test. I am praying to go through this test and come out the other end with a new and better marriage then before.
