Sorry that you are dealing with that. It seems like yesterday when the OM's wife called me to break the news to me...the day after Christmas, 2016. Same boat. Two families destroyed. And I believed her lies.

I've spoken to the fiancee a couple of times. I've actually encouraged DB advice without mentioning where it came from. I feel bad for him because this is fresher for him than for me and his children are very young. I find myself going down that slippery slope again. Listening to the fiancee telling me how perfect she is, basically all the things WH wants, just simply drives home my own imperfections.
Can be therapeutic to talk with him. Just be careful. The slope of fault will always be slippery. Always.

My rose colored glasses are off. I see my R for what it was and know that in the end, he's probably doing me a favor. It's just learning how to pick up all the broken pieces thats so hard.
Removing the glasses is the hardest thing of all...and the most painful. You'll get those pieces picked up - they'll go back in a different order, but back nonetheless.
There are moments in this life when you are so confident in the rightness of your actions, that not even for a second do you consider the option that you might be wrong.
