Thanks, everyone for the input. Life progresses. Detachment continues. Thoughts of OM come and go. Showing W as much Grace as possible these days. Being supportive as it seems the gravity of the situation is really sinking in. Validating, etc., especially w/ SS15 issues. He is taking advantage of her absence at work while he is supposed to be getting homeschooling done. I told her it wouldn't work that way, but my opinion on that one, while requested, was not heard.

Went to church tonight with all children, had a good time with my extended support group. They are all really sad my W is gone - she had friends there, but she has shut them out.

Thanks, raliced, for all your input. I really appreciate it. I guess I am worried that the A is a symptom, and not a cause. Therefore, since she's known him as long as she's known me, he's been elevated to equivalent status & above, since he obviously would NEVER do any of the dumb stuff that I have.

Like hold her hand at bedside when we found out that the cervical cancer was completely gone. Or cry together after a miscarriage. Or that the emergency hysterectomy was successful and the bleeding was completely stopped.

Dammit. Maudlin again.
