When I take a step back and try to look at the forest, I see a women who has had a fantasy with another individual for close to 18 years and who believes that she has found somebody better than her current husband, trading up to a better model. Someone she believes is closer to her soulmate. It appears that the legal system is set up to favor the primary caregiver and actually put her and the OM in a better financial position than the one they are in today.
One of my problems is trying to figure how get out of the way of the battle that my wife is having with herself? By staying at the house I easily can get in the middle; however, by leaving I open the door for to run to the other guy and it appears I also lose my children.
