Good work, keep getting that support from those that love you, now what are your plans?
How long will you be in Plan A? Have you thought about plan B?

I've been in Plan B for a good three weeks, I suppose. Once the affair was exposed and she started coming "home" sporadically, I'd reached the human threshold for Plan A tolerance.
When she started packing and moving out, I had one final conversation with her, which was my plan B "letter". I was calm, firm... I looked her in the eyes and told her that despite what she'd done, I was still completely committed to her and the family... that I loved her and that I had no doubt that with me she could live a happy and fulfilled life, etc... I also told her, in the words of Mr. Dylan, "You're a big girl now...", you're on your own from here on out, my protection and support is now done, etc...
Today she texted me and apologized for something she had done... An act which surprisingly brought back tender feelings in me, and I felt my heart secretly going out to her. I simply texted back that at this stage apologies were not necessary at all and that the only dialogue we needed to have was regarding logistics with the kids, drop off and pick up times, their well-being and that apart from that I had no desire to talk "relationship". End.
The fact is, I feel so much better without this emotional vampire around that I'm finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

If you're talking to her then you're not in Plan B.
