Sandi is pretty clear where she stands on this and she knows her stuff.

I see it as ultimate cake eating. She either comes back for the whole package or she doesn't. hShe should not be allowed dictate the terms of her coming back.

As a minimum she needs to commit to nc with OM, full transparency andto work on M. I would insist on MB, but don't expect intimacy. If she agrees ye have a chance. If she doesn't you know you were right to avoid in house separation by letting her back.

Next on your list could be separating your finances.

Good luck.
