While it is true that MLC is like a mental disorder, and even if you can detach and view them as patients, its hard to live with the emotional abuse.

I remember in the early days of my sitch, after I found out about OW, my H and I went through a period when he was open to me about it, and would text OW in front of me, and talk to her on the phone. It quickly became too much for me, and after a couple of months, even if I did not feel prepared, I had to tell him that he had to choose between OW and his family. No in between, divorce or us. I could no longer stand the cake eating. When I gave him the choice, he could not leave.

Let it be his choice, Wen. The MLC'er will do everything they can to make the LBS so sick of them that in the end we will kick them out. Then we become the bad guy .... and they will perpetuate being the victim, along with OW.... we become the enemy.

If you read the MLC for dummies it summarizes it so accurately.... have you read that yet? Its been reposted recently.
