Well, BI, my W's affair started 14 months ago, so I don't know how you could say that my sitch has been moving "faster".

PL, I hope to catch up on you and a lot of other people during the next two weeks when I'm off. I haven't read other sitches in ages.

Yesterday was scary, because W ended up seeing the OM (something that I desperately wanted to prevent). He had previously let her know that he would be coming into BR to get his stuff from their apartment. W had actually moved to a new apartment since he had been here last, so she was going to have to make sure that he could get in. She tried to set it up so that he could simply pick up a key from the apartment office, but that didn't work out and OM called her to let him in. Fortunately W was with her mother, and OM's mother was there too, so the conversation didn't get out of control, but W told me that if her mother hadn't been with her, she'd have probably ended up in OM's arms and everything would have started over again. Thankfully, MIL's presence and an impending doctor's appointment kept the meeting short and to the point, but W was very upset last night, as you might imagine. She felt better after I took her out to eat and to a movie, but I definitely still am concerned about her. I'm very grateful that I have two weeks off starting tomorrow -- and we can maybe spend some time learning to love each other again.
