Does it help to try and talk about the relationship as long as WS is with the OW? And will he even care or hear what you have to say? I'm still in Plan A (for the 2nd time). And if so what should you say?

While in the midst of an A, I think it is better not to talk about the relationship, cuz they just don't care. Others here might have a different idea.

I'm going to agree with believer here, you might as well talk about your relationship to a wall. It just doesn't work and puts the WS on the defensive.

I'm relatively new to this, only two months separated, but I don't even bring up the relationship or the OW when talking to WH.

I don't say "I Love You" or "I Miss You." Even though I really do.

I just keep it short and simple. Let OW mess up.

I learn to keep calm and don't bring up subjects that might cause a stir.

Will there come a time when WS will talk about it? I have so many questions and no answers.

I assume that will only happen when WS pokes thier head out of the fog and realize what they have done until then only time will tell and it ain't talkin. Hang in there Cyn.
