Your situation is not unique. Your W is having an affair. That happens in 99% of the situations here.

You are likely wrong here too. She has likely been looking to get out for a while and monkey branching is an easy escape for the monkey.

People leave marriages for 1 of 2 reasons. Loss or attraction or don't see a happy future together.

What does LRT/GAL/180 mean to you? Sounds like you are trying to cook using a recipe and don't understand the ingredients.

So what happens if/when she does?
