By taking her back you will guaranteeing another bomb drop. A woman cannot love a man she does not respect. Ask yourself the last time you felt respected by your wife.
Dude, her saying the words “we can try again” etc are appalling to me! How insulting of her! Is it really that easy for her to waltz back into your life after 5 affairs?
Steve, I know it hurts. But you are in an narc/codependent abusive relationship. You are being emotionally abused right now and you don’t even know it. This woman is poison and you are addicted to her.
If getting back together with her for 6 months while she looks for a man to cheat with, then by all means sign up for another bomb drop. But if you want to change your life, meet an actual decent human being for a partner, and have complete confidence that your partner is truly loyal, RUN from this woman.
Oh and btw, you can’t “DB” a personality disordered person. She’s mentally ill and DBing can’t fix that. The wife that has cheated on you 5x is exactly who she will be until the day she dies.
