If and when I go to the house which, at this point, is looking inevitable for tonight unless I figure something else out, the issue of living arrangements is bound to come up. And it should come up. I have no intention of tucking my tail and running for my own house. So that will have to be addressed, and I am still taking suggestions.

Similarly, when that comes up, the issue of what to tell the kids is starting to come up as well. My conviction, as I have stated before, is to tell them the truth. And I also intend to say that to my wife. They need to be told the truth. This is going to probably cause a major meltdown because it is her major fear and darkest nightmare. So any thoughts on how to handle an approach that would be appreciated as well.

Finally, I do not intend to engage in any marathon relation discussions with her, however, it seems to be everyone's opinion here, that would be perfectly fine, and even the good move to make sure I tell her that I think that she has a problem problems that she needs to work out on her own, and let her compulsive and repeated returns to the OM are evidence of that. Part of me also really wants to tell her that if she is serious about getting herself right that she should reexamine who her closest confidants are, perhaps without specifically naming BFF.. but I am a little weary about doing that because I fear it may have the opposite effect. I don't know. Let me know y'all thoughts.
