You are right. The fear is paralyzing me. My W has total control of the sitch. I am going to read the book when it gets here tomorrow.
I am aware we are in the friendzone. I honestly don't want anything else right now either. I do think the friendzone has made it very comfortable for my W to live her life the way she wants though. I guess originally I viewed being friends as a way for us to reconnect with each other and be there for our kids. It is turning out as just a way for her to go about her life without fearing what I might do as her husband.
When I take a step back and try to analyze our sitch it is crazy to think she is carrying on these EA's and I know about it. She knows I know about it, but she doesn't even bother to hide it.
I have heard 2 different theories on how to respond. Some say don't take this from her while others say to leave her alone and don't start conflict with her. I have obviously taken the 2nd way.
I need to read NMMNG when it gets here. Maybe it can be a help in all of this.
