I think you are right. Just hard to be patient and put up with this. I think he also knows he has a looming issue that I've told him I don't want to live like this past the holidays.
I have a call in to our MC. I may see if I can get a session set up with H for next week. I think whether he goes alone or we go together...it could be very helpful for him to talk to a third party. He's only told one of his friends about the A and that friend doesn't strike me as the most insightful person about relationships.
H talked to our MC about 2.5 months ago and was confused about the A and the marriage--I guess my hope is that he's now seen more from me to improve his view of the M...but I know there's also a risk the A has improved.
I'll see what the MC says.
