Thanks rd -- no, he calls his OW his "serious long-term partner" -- no matter that their relationship is primarily online, and that they've spent less than a month in each other's presence. He is in the thick of the fog, and I'm happy to leave him there. My skies are clear, and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel (meaning the divorce process)! I don't plan to waste my life dealing with a deranged narcissist. It's too short and beautiful to waste it in that way! I'm happier on my own, and might be happy with someone else in the future -- who knows?
I'm only irritated that he is deceiving our friends when ostensibly the whole point of his moving out was to "find his true self" -- but I guess his true self is a dishonest, deceitful person. Glad I know now. It makes it much easier to move on.
