Its been a few weeks since i last posted, but here is the curve ball I am dealing with... she is moving... on January 6th to Colorado to be with her family...
and it just brings on a new kind of emotion.. like is he only with me because his first choice left? Although he says that isn't true... I knew something had to change.. that we could not keep living this way and as long as we lived in the same city it would stay the same..
I just thought it would be me leaving instead ....
Its so confusing and I am giving space and just keeping to myself and focusing on my crazy work schedule... I do not know where to go or how things will work out...
but thought it was worth posting

Part of the problem with the "just wait out the affair" approach is that if OW/OM dumps them, it's highly likely that there then becomes an OW2/OM2 since you've never:
a. Learned to successfully lay out and enforce personal boundaries; and
b. Fixed those behaviors in yourself that may have contributed to the marital dysfunction to such an extent that your spouse thought it was okay to have an affair.
