I tend to post more to LBH newcomers, so I am not sure if exposure is more of the male thinking, or not. The men see OM as being the problem. Remove the problem and he gets his W back, right? But it does not remove the problem. The problem started before OM entered the picture.
I think most of us guys know that the OM is a symptom and not the root cause of the problem. But, it's nice to be able to deflect a lot of the anger and rage toward the OM rather than the loving wife.
