I don't know how I missed that email, (Sorry) but I don't think it helped him.
My 3 gut reactions and thoughts reading it, were !) "wow he is so angry and self righteous, he takes zero responsibility for needing to work on himself" (So the marriage will NOT be any better or different if I return to it)
AND 2) "he is so NOT detached."
AND 3) you condemn the affair while also giving her permission to keep it going.
It Just didn't strike me as strong, but at least she hasn't filed yet. IF something is working, imo, it wasn't the letter.
I will try to read your thread more thoroughly b/c I missed the letter the first go round but Huddy, the general rule around here is to POST THE LETTER FIRST
so you can get feedback.
The other point I wanted to make is this:
No Walk Away Spouse Returns to a marriage they left.........unless
they believe the marriage can be better/different than before.
Just or not, the reality is that it's the LBSers job to demonstrate that it can be.
I would urge anyone writing a letter to ask themselves IF/HOW it helps show this.
