Quote: Okay, the OW knows that he has a wife, but has she ever really thought of you as being a real person? Probably not. Well, she found out by your call that you are a real person and you are living at home with him. You also called him out on being an adulterer. So you nailed to birds with one stone.
What an excellent point!!! We do forget that the OW has no real context in which to relate to US as other women/other human beings because to them we aren't real because our S has allowed them to believe that our stature in their life has been minimalized.
All women have experienced rejection and heartache at some point in their lives and I think very few would ever truly be able to turn a cold and indifferent heart to our pain if they were to stop for a minute and see us as 'real people' with the same needs, desires and emotions as they have.
