Actually, after WW refused any steps toward reconciliation or even seeing a therapist, I followed the advice from another website and exposed her affair to our friends, and the OM and his family. That really blew the A up, three weeks after I discovered her emails. It had both positive and negative fallouts...
The positive is that I got in front of her ability to "spin" the story, and got the facts out there. Also, she was denying that the OM had anything to do with it, using the standard ILYBINILWY BS, we've grown apart, etc. etc. But having the emails blew that to smithereens, so she couldn't continue to gaslight me.
The negative is that she really shut down afterwards, and although her mother initially pushed her to R with me, she secretly planned her divorce with her after WW was able to turn her. She stopped talking to her friends that I talked to, basically shut them out for the past four months. I don't think this is healthy for her at all.
The saga is still ongoing so not sure how this story is going to end...
