Ox- " well I refuse to live in an open marriage I am not willing to share my wife with an OM"
W- " well I am sorry I am not ready to end communication with OM and you can't make me"

So now that I laid down my boundaries to my WS she tells me she's not ready to decide but she's not leaving me, the kids or the house and I can't make her..


You have not laid down any boundaries. You expressed a pious wish and she ignored it.

You can't make her do anything, but you can do something for yourself. File for divorce. Then she'll decide that you won't live in an open marriage.

Most everyone who has posted on your new thread has hinted at filing for divorce as the right way to go. After you file the next move is up to her. If she insists on her right to see the OM, that's it.

Don't listen to any nonsense about your kids. She is leaving them, you are not taking them away from her.
