I am so sorry to read this and can feel the fatigue and frustration you must be feeling. You have been a trooper but there is such a thing as a strategic retreat. Maybe the 3rd time is the charm my friend as you have paid your dues. It may be time to do what is right for you and your daughter. Your wife is confused yes but she is an adult. Adults take responsiblity for thier actions. From what I read here, she has no consequenses to her actions. So she is not taking any responsibility. I don't give a Rats A!@# if she is confused or suffering. If she actually is capable of those feelings at this time then good. She can reap what she has sown.
I admire your character in that you have done this multiple times and for so long. You are a good man and father. But only you decide when enough is enough. You decide when the suffereing is over and your decsion is the right one for you.
Think on this for awhile. Its not new but maybe its relevent. Why are you depriving yourself and your future partner your company any longer? You only have so many years on this earth. Why are you wasting them on someone who can not ...no strike that will not be a full partner with you and your daughter. A man protects and defends but you can only do that for those that will accept it. I will garuntee you there is a really good women waiting for you to enter her life fully and with a clear conscious. You will not only make her the happiest women in the world but you will bring light and laughter to you and your daughter.
Only you can stop the pain. Only you can bring happiness to your life. You can do it and you can handle it.
Good Luck,
