Except for the tiny little fact that he doesn't yet know that he has one giant reason to leave.

Exposure is a tool used by the BS to end the A. It is a way to keep the WS accountable and to ensure that the A does not continue. There is no malice in that, no hatefulness. It has nothing to do with lashing out at the WS and trying to hurt them.

Trust this board when they say IT WILL HELP TO EVENTUALLY REBUILD THE M. THE PROCESS HELPS INSURE THAT IT DOES NOT HAPPEN AGAIN WHEN FOLLOWED. THE PROCESS ALLOWS THE MR TO HEAL IN THE LONG RUN----->

SHOULD THE SPOUSE HAVE THE CHOICE

So does that mean you told him about the A?

Why would it be wrong for you and your relationship? I'd really appreciate hearing that explanation.

lolkil,

Right now there is a LIE that exists between you and your husband. This makes the two of you ADVERSARIES...You cannot be intimate and in love with an adversary...In order for the two of you to be on the same TEAM, you must each know all there is to know about the other...

It didn't end because you are still in contact with the OM. Just because you're not sleeping with him anymore doesn't mean you have taken all the necessary steps. You have to write a no contact letter and come clean to the OM's wife and really dedicate yourself to healing your M. I haven't seen anything in any of your posts indicating that you have done that.

You still haven't confirmed whether or not you have told your H. Why are you avoiding answering that question?

Your friend's M is HER business though, and she doesn't know about something that affects HER in a huge way. How can she make her own decisions about something she knows nothing about? Explain the logic in that.

The TRUTH. The truth is good enough. He has to know and so does the OM's wife so they can protect themselves from you. Not telling them is lying by omission, which just compounds your crime.

Are you not stable enough to take accountability for your crime?

lokil, you are an unrepentant OW. What do you want on this board?
