Amelie, you're holding it together so well. Good move on going to the rehab center as well. You need all the information and support you can get on this.

This path is not linear. There's forward motion along with backsliding and its hard to know what will trigger either direction. Stay strong for yourself and your child. I agree with GRN on the boundaries. You need to take care of yourself and your child. Your H needs to understand that as bad as he feels for this OW, his first priority needs to be his own family. As much as he feels bad about what he's done, his words you list above show a struggle in his thought process. And while the circumstances are different, its looks pretty standard to a WAS and how they feel about an OW.

Good luck with the rehab center. Keep us posted.
