BklynMom you hit it dead on with my H. He has always been Mr. Nice Guy. Anything that involved even a remote confrontation (correcting a bill at a restaurant, haggling on a price of something for the house, etc.) he always had me do.
As for OW, based on my limited observations of what's going on, their R is absolutely sex driven. I think I mentioned earlier that even the music he listens to is so explicit and raunchy. And when they're not having sex she is absolutely kissing his a$$ all day every day. He has made comments to me that he needs to feel the love and appreciation and how I'm just too independant for him. Meanwhile she is a degenerate who is in major debt and supposedly has quite a few screws loose so he feels like a star next to her. OW needs him to save her and he's eating it up. I don't think he's actually doing much saving of her ($wise, but then again who knows), but it feels good to him to have someone need him and glorify him the way she does. At least that's my theory. So yes, while this charade goes on I am useless so I need to be disposed. After all I am the biatch who does not glorify her H but instead piles on the responsibilities of kids, home and finances (even though I have not asked anything of him since BD). That is how he views me. OW is the fun one and I'm the one with the baggage (that's not his of course, just mine).
