So many posts, so little time. Ms.Hdog went to bed early last night, which left me some time to log on and read my thread, something I normally don't do. I read your post, Cobra, and, frankly, it just sapped my energy.
Don't get me wrong: I appreciate your insight. I appreciate you for taking the time to write it. I think, in many ways, you might be right. It's just that, yesterday afternoon I was looking down one road that seemed straight, well-defined, and the potholes/bumps seemed pretty obvious. Plus, it's a road that can be walked in a few weeks or, at most, months.
Your route seems to be an ever-changing path through a minefield. And it is long. It seems endless. It requires some subterfuge, and, it requires me to be smarter than my wife.
And it's not that I'm unwilling to put in hard work. It's just that, it seems all I've been doing is putting in hard work.
What the pre-Cobra plan provides that yours doesn't is a discernible end. Whether that end is weekly sex with my W, or a concrete realization that she is not willing to budge from her POV (and the consequences of that realization), at least it's an end.
Mrs.Nop: I also appreciate you taking the time to collect all the "snippets." The one that has the "I think of leaving you every single day" struck a chord, although I could see W getting off on the "threat" tangent. Yes, the less said, the better.
I will try to comment more, later, but just wanted to post this and to thank everyone for contributing.
