It's 11pm. I am in the corner chair of the living room, my WW is on the couch where, until recently, we would usually sit together in the evenings and watch our favorite show of the moment (Breaking Bad, House of Cards... tonight, Blue Bloods).

She spent the whole day, almost, with the OW. I so miss the days when I could be on that couch with her, resting easily together, legs entangled and falling asleep together. I want to go over and kiss her. I want things to be like they were... a mere five weeks ago.

What a mess. She's a mess. I need to set my strategy for this week. I hope she and the OW crash and burn quickly. I want her back. I want HER back. Not this woman.

Any advice for how to start a detached week anew?
