Dealing with a WW trying to save marriage pt2

[burned]

I have let her go. I am not dictating anything beyond asking her to not mistreat me or my children. That and I have asked her not to speak with OM in this house because its disrespectful.

Here's another area where you can make some serious progress. This is where you need a boundary! Forget about asking her. When I married my W I asked her to not sleep with anyone except me. Well, so much for that.

This is an opportunity to set a boundary, but I'm not an expert on boundaries.

Maybe something like this: "W, when you talk to OM while living here, I feel disrespected and taken advantage of. If you continue, I will have no choice but to ..." Whatever the consequence is.

And then when she decides to keep doing it, you FOLLOW THROUGH with the consequence.
