We are in the middle of it. She got board with me after 20 years, so I started an affair. My W got the message that I was alone a little late, but says she thinks we could fix our marriage if we both commit to working on it and I attend counceling. Okay, I know I was wrong about having an affair, but can the W ever truly forgive me? I accepted the idea that when I started my affair, the M was over. Well, she isn't letting go, even though I've asked for a seperation. My real concern is can the W ever truly forgive me? How can I tell if there is real hope?
