Sunny, Your w is having moments of clarity and I like the fact that you paused the tv to listen to what she had to say. The more you do this, the more she will open up. She needs validation and attention in this respect. Nice job!
I had to chuckle about the FIOS and phones w/a 2 year contract, as well as speaking to you about the kitchen and enjoying it for years to come...she's a very confused woman, but she still is tied to your relationship. That's good.
Sunny, you've had a lot of positives this week. Keep up the good work...but keep those expectations at zero at all times. Continue to drop those bread crumbs (friendship crumbs)! They are working their magic all of the time. As for the OP, they are like dope to the mlcer and it takes a lot of strength and endurance for them to break free of them, but in time, the affair should die a natural death. Don't stir the pot up w/conversations about him...just leave it be for now.
Enjoy the holidays. Christmas is a magical time and miracles always tend to happen around this special time. I hope that you and your family have a safe, blessed and very Merry Christmas.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
