Anthony, I think you need to slow down a bit. Your sitch is brand new. You aren't even a month past ILYBNILWY! Patience wins the race. I am not asking you to eat crap sandwiches. I am asking you to follow the process and give it time.

I just told Wolfman that if you remain patient, DB like a boss, and remain consistent, she might come around. Also, the general rule is to give it a year post BD before making the decision yourself to D. That is up to you of course, but most LBSs want to be able to look back and tell their kids "I was patient and did everything I could to save our marriage". Your FiL is right, D affects kids. Ding parents always downplay it but the long term effects on kids is real and well documented.

Do not make decisions out of emotion and anger. You will live to regret it.
