Yes. He does. Now, he's not allowed in my inner circle, but I love him from this safe life I have created.

Well...you aren't wrong! lol I couldn't figure out how to put that in words. This is probably going to take me more time to see her as an actual human and not gum on the bottom of my shoe. I don't have emotion around her directly as I see her more as a symptom of his out of control life and an attempt by him to fill the void.

November 21 I slept with him. I wasn't positive he had an OW - had suspicions.
That was the last time as I knew he did. Found out last week it had started a long time ago.
Surprisingly -

It actually made me think - ok. Going forward, I can see him at events for the family and I'm ok. I know he has OW now and that has nothing to do with me and I don't feel envy. I feel pity sometimes but mostly don't feel anything. It's like I notice it and move on.
