WS sleeps with someone else. WS leaves a wake of destruction. WS says crazy things. WS acts selfish beyond belief. WS completely disregards future of kids and marriage.
BS tries to save marriage. BS can't imagine harming the kids with D. BS gets no SF for months. BS takes WS out to dinner, shows, etc. BS acts super cheerful and fun to be around. BS does more work around the house.
Being a BS is B.S.

Not annoying nor B.S.
It is
empowering.
Empowering cause it is being a better person by not getting into the cruel clutches of the Ego (or Taker if you will).
The Ego/Taker wants us to have what we want RIGHT now and it never ever serves us well in the end.
So plan A is about circumventing that mistaken idea and being a more in control person.

HERE HERE Reading. I did like the feelings I got while in Plan A about myself. It did suck sometimes though. I am glad that I didn't do it too long because I can see how it would be emotionally draining FOR SURE.

TE, what is your situation? I see your D-day was 8-9 months ago. Are you into recovery yet? If not, then you are ripe for Plan B.

Is this all carrot and no stick? You are not obligated to Plan A and don't want to go to Plan Doormat either. Plan D is probably annoying and difficult too.

I'm just venting that's all.
I like the new me better. In great shape because I lost like 20 lbs. Working out like crazy. Eating better. Taking better care of the kids. All kinds of positive stuff.
But even though I'm being fun and pleasant... I'm still absolutely furious. I feel like smashing lamps and punching holes in walls and running into OM in a dark alley.
And as far as Plan B goes, I can't afford another place. I already pay a huge mortgage by myself and we have no family withing hundreds of miles. Any ideas?

Maritalbliss,
I have not been in Plan A that long. For the first few months after D-day, I wasn't in any plan. I was just kind of in chaos. I've been in Plan A since about the New Year.
And NC started shortly after exposure with broken NC around end of Feb. I am just really getting a better understanding of Plan A and seem to be making a bit of progress. Maybe.
And there's no way WW will leave the house without the kids. So to go to Plan B would be me leaving.

No, you never leave your home. NEVER. This will get you "charged" with abandonment and no chance of custody.
One year becomes two, two years becomes five, five becomes ten and before you know it, you've wasted your whole life on a problem you can't solve. That's one way to spend your life. -rwinger
I will not spend my life this way.
