And I haven't been finding too many success stories lately.
Hi and welcome to our community. Our stories are a bit different, but I do consider mine a success. I was almost a WAW in an EA. Your M can make it, but you have got to change. No woman wants to be M to a man who sniffs every step she takes. Jealousy is not called the green-eyed monster for nothing! It will turn you into something very ugly.
Pull back and leave her alone except things regarding the children. Take special pride in your appearances. Polish up your manners. Have a positive mental attitude. Show a great personality. Be on your best behavior whenever you are around anyone, not just your W.
Get out and get a life. Do things you've not done in a long time or maybe never. Make new friends, go somewhere new, etc. This will add interest to your life and give you something to talk about beside your M problems.
When you are around your W, do not discuss the R. Do no argue with her. Validate her feelings.
Come here as much as you can. Posting and reading other stories help more than you realize.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
