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.

"Bo-Peep" never works.
