I found out two days ago that my DH of 10+ years has been in an A for 4+ years. He is done with it and wants to work on our marriage. Someone suggested he write a "Separation Letter" to OW saying that it's over, he loves me...then I proof it and send it.

Any examples around? And could I send it to the OW DH? He needs to know and I don't think he'll believe me.

Dr. Harley's letter from Surviving an Affair: [from SAA, pg 58]

OW, I want you to know that out of respect and love for my wife and children, I have come to realize that I must never see or talk to you again. My relationship with you was a cruel indulgence that BS did not deserve. While I cannot completely repay BS for the pain I caused her, I will do my best to become the husband she has been missing. I care a great deal for my family and I would not want to do anything to risk their happiness. I will not make any further contact with you and I do not want you to make any contact with me. Please respect my desire to end our relationship.

Sincerely, XXXXX
