I am not got going to BS you...our marriage was the result of both of us leaving our previous marriages. I'm not proud of that fact, and I am sure the long-standing guilt of that contributed to our marriage problems. The strange thing about all of this is that her XH, his wife (#2) and I have become good friends; they invited me to their house this past Saturday night for cake & coffee. It is remarkable and disturbing to find out her words and actions during this situation are so identical to what she said and did to him 12 years ago.
"Because right now especially given her past of EA's, she hasn't learned anything except to avoid, lie and cheat. She refuses to grow, anytime she reaches a rough patch or a crossing point, she chooses neither and just makes her own path."
You nailed it.
