Stand for my marriage? I may still love W, and I might even still want her, and I would do literally anything for my family, but my marriage? My marriage is a sham! It's been pissed all over. Maybe there's a someday where there's another relationship with W, but it's not this one!
Yes of course, maybe I should have said stand for your W rather than your M, because you are quite right, the goal isn't to go "back to normal". It's to create a new R that is superior to the old one.

You are right again, and certainly I wasn't suggesting you should be proud of breaking her heart. What I meant was you should take pride in knowing you did the right thing even though it hurt you and her right now, because allowing the situation to persist would have hurt both of you much more later.
