Denver, We all try to be upbeat and positive on here. But, brother, you are correct on two very big points and I would fight to the death to back you on this.
1) The jack*ss is a predator. And like any predator in the wild, he better remember that there is always a larger fish in the sea waiting for his chump-*ss around the next corner. You don't mess with another person's spouse ESPECIALLY in a situation like this. It is too bad public hangings are no longer allowed because this piece of sh*t would be a great candidate.
2) You W does feel guilt and it shoul eat her alive. If I were you, I would do nothing, and I mean NOTHING, to relieve her of this guilt. Don't pour it on and don't make it worse, but you let her carry this cross for a spell. You may have forced her to leave, but you didn't lock her naked in a room with this guy. She did that all on her own. And, yes, she was hiding it and she knew that was wrong. When my W got home from Canada, she suddenly after three years changed the password to our on-line cellular account. Hmmmm, I wonder why? Because she did not want me to see the 300 messages she exchanged with her new "friend." Worst part is that when I was upset and doing more snooping than I should, I found "Mr. Canada's" FB page. He is listed as "being in a relationship." So, this Nobel Prize Winner is apparently messing over some poor woman up there while he is carrying on with my W. What a fine, upstanding individual he is?!?!? This tool isn't worth the price of the bullet that someone should put in him. DBmod, I promise I am not going to do anything. Just some "talk" here, nothing else.
Sorry for all the "piss and vinegar" here, but these two topics still get me a bit fired up and you should not have to apologize to anyone if this is the way you feel.
Hope I didn't whip you up into a frenzy with this. Like I told MJ, I don't think anyone should be taking any advice from me right now considering my currently mental state.
BITS never walk alone!
