Yes, he is...and maybe that's what attracted the OW to him initially. It is what attracted me in the beginning, too. However, that same "bad boy" image is what kept him running around with other women, being dishonest, not keeping a steady income, etc. He claims that this OW brings out the "good man" in him, that he feels inspired to change and become faithful, compassionate, honest, etc. I know it's possible for my xH to change, but I don't think it's possible for him to change FOR someone else -- at least not permanently.

I hope so. This is what I can't get out of my head throughout the day...this sense of things just being so damn unfair (and not just for me, but for the OW's xH, for all of the children involved). That these two people are willing to wreck so many other lives just to be together...and are not suffering the consequences of that action makes me angry. But I know that I am not in charge of karma in this world, so I guess I must just be patient. I know that they will reap what they have sown.

I know you're right. I am sure the intrigue will wear off eventually. I hope it's sooner rather than later.
