No.
Especially not about Plan B.
WSs in their stupor typically ridicule MB principles as manipulation if they find out about them.
What to tell the WS about Plan A is your recognition of your failings in the marriage that helped create the affair-friendly environment.
But don't utter the words, "Plan A."
Say, "My plan for restoring the marriage to one better than either of us imagined."
