I am with you because my W told me last month that she was going away for a weekend with the girls but then she never went. I knew it was not the girls because I know some of them. I just had to bite my lip and say have fun. It is very hard to do but over time it becomes easier. I still get a little emotional when I know she is lying to me but not nearly as bad as before. I just mentally prepare myself to let it go.

Good idea on the fiances. On the D thing I would not bring it up unless you are willing to hear that she wants a divorce. Because that is an option. Do not ask a question that you are not willing to hear what you do not want to hear.


I disagree that in a perfect marriage she would ask you to go with her.

I think a perfect marriage has room for each spouse to build friendships and have independent adventures.

Chris, I get why it's rough on you in this particular case because of OMs.

Is this something new in your marriage--for her to travel with friends?
