I never bring W up unless they ask if I heard from her. Apparently she is wayward from them as well.
Yeah, that happens a lot. The spouse is the first to go, but often the WAS will alienate from the kids next, then from other family, then from friends. If and when they reconnect they do it in reverse order. So it's usually a good sign if you see them reconnecting with friends and family, eventually that path will lead back to the LBS.

Funny story and I probably handled this wrong but its still funny. Me and two other guys went eat and drink some beer at a local downtown restaurant two Saturdays ago. As we were walking out, boom there's my W and OM walking his dog. We crossed paths and we all stopped. All in disbelief as we finally meet face to face. Never seen this guy except on FB and he only had pics of their faces. W said hey in a nervous voice and I stopped and looked at OM. Looked at him up then down then down then up. I pointed at him and looked at her and said this is the guy you left me for? Your joking right? Surprisingly I had no anger and we just walked off after that.
Hahaha! Well maybe not textbook DB'ing, but it does make for an amusing story

Since that day W has asked me to do several things and I had to decline due to other obligations.
Good!

She has not directly addressed that day yet but she keeps saying she is depressed and nothing is going her way. I wanted to say something rude but I just say I'm sorry and leave it at that.
Yeah on the one hand you could try to talk to her and validate, but on the other hand as long as she's with OM it's no fun being her life preserver.
Good job on avoiding the snooping, it helps your attitude, doesn't it?
