Best advice I can give you right now.........
Call the coaching center. See if you can get Steve Harley Jr.
Drop the counselor.
Husband was unfaithful to me before and after our marriage, at least 7 times. I found out 13 yrs into the marriage. Trickle truth for an entire year. Several different d-days, so it was more like a d-year. Difficult recovery.

Like I said, the term codependence does not seem to apply to the issue of the affair. It has to do with substance abuse.
Anyway.
My take on this is:::::
noanswers is AFRAID to expose the affair - as are most betrayed spouses.
Afraid of the fallout, afraid of the judgement, afraid of hurting the wayward spouse, of having to deal with an angry spouse, etc. etc. etc.
The fact is, the BS can and should expose this affair and watch it implode.
After that, see what this WH does.
If noanswers wants a divorce, then do that. It is her right, given the circumstances. But exposure has more of a chance of ending the affair than continued secrecy and protection of the WS and his OW.
The protection and lack of exposure serves no purpose other than to allow for the affair to continue unchallenged and uninhibited. Period.

Lucky to be where I am, in a safe place to get marriage-related support. Recovered. Happy. Most recent D-day Fall 2005 Our new marriage began that day. Not easily, but it did happen.
