I've been separated for two months, and my WW has been involved with a coworker for some time.

who moved out?
how long ago did she begin her affair?


Quote
Discovery was one month ago, exposure took place the next day to bosses and family, and confrontation took place after.

so you separated BEFORE discovery ... why is that?

Quote
Constant pressure on the bosses has been applied, and Plan A has been in full effect for two months.

besides exposure (congratulations on doing that)
what has your Plan A looked like?

in other words, how are you making yourself the better choice?

Quote
Recently, the conversation has shifted to mentioning of suicide by WW ("Sometimes it would be so much easier"), how things are too messy and too much has happened, and a non-committal/non-remorseful approach.

I'd call her parents and mention that they ought to offer WW (daughter) support as she mentioned suicide, albeit in a non-serious way ... but show your concern by asking them to support her emotionally as she is so fragile

Quote
Plan A continues to avoid talks of the R or M except when initiated by the W, and lengthy conversations have been taking place. WW has finally began mentioning how much she has missed me, how hard this has been for her, and how undecided she is on whether or not she wants to come back. When asked if still involved with the OM, she avoids the question. Asked if she will continue to see him, she says "I don't know". Things are fragile, and I'm a bit afraid of her recent talk.

OK ... she is fragile, and she should be ... she's breaking her own internal laws ... and with good people, there is a price to pay when we break our own internal laws

gotta run now.... ask questions !

Thanks PEP <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />,
I just logged on to respond to this post because it got no responses, and I felt badly aabout that.

Some of the same thoughts occured to me. Why did you move out and seperate before the discovery of an A? Were you asked to move out by your WW, and simply complied to that?

Sorry for the lack of responses, but it is very slow aroung here on weekends, things will pick up during the week.

Your WW claims they are just "good friends." Well there is an excellant book out there called"Not just friends" by Dr. Shirlee Glass. I suggest you get a copy and read it thru.

I would humbly suggest that you move back into your home, regardless of what WW thinks or says. If there is to be a seperation, it should be her that moves out and not YOU~!

Can you provide a little more background info so we can all understand the nature of this? How long M'd, any children, etc..

Lastly, welcome to MB forums, there is a lot of greast advise here, but you need to reveal a little more of your sitch. OK?

All Blessings,
Jerry
