1. call your phone call targets starting with the OM's wife. Tell her about the affair, state your evidence [let's discuss] and offer to meet with her later to give her any solid evidence you have. Offer her your phone # and name for followup. GIVE HER YOUR WIFE'S CELL PHONE #. We want her to call your wife.

It was actually my daughter who told me about the OM, my daughter found a chat box open on the computer where my wife and the OM were "sexting" each other. My wife convinced our own daughter (age 21 and in college at the time) to withold this info from me. So a year later my daughter tells me!
I confront my wife who finally confesses to it AFTER we separated.
So, all the evidence I have is my Daughters testimony to the sexting and her own Mothers lies......and my own Wifes confession.

Quote
Next, call up your wife's parents and tell them about the affair. Tell them you love your wife and want to save your marriage. Ask them for their advice <-----real important because you want their buy in. And ask them to use their influence to persuade her to end her affair.

I'm close to her Parents, but I'm fully aware when the fur flies......my Wife may get their support.
I have communicated to them the FACT of the affair and their daughters own confession. They tell me they will support my fight for for their daughter.

Quote
With that out of the way, move onto phase 2, which is the email list. I would make up a list of those you want to email, ie: OM's children, your wife's close friends and family [excluding her parents, who should get a phone call] and send them all an email. The email should go something like this:

Dear friends and family, you were chosen to recieve this email because you are an important person to Sally and I. It is because of this that I am writing to ask for your support in saving my marriage. I love Sally with all my heart and soul and do not want our marriage and family to break up.

Sally has left me and the children to pursue her affair with a married man, Dr Joe Scumbag

I LIKE IT!!!

This should all be done on the SAME DAY to get the maximum effect and to prevent them from pre-empting you. There should be NO FOREWARNING.

Your wife will start getting calls from people and she will call you up in an absolute FURY. Just expect that. Don't answer the phone until you are completely finished with exposures. In fact, you might let her go crazy for a few hours before you talk to her.

When you talk to her, just let her know that you felt everyone should know about her affair. Let her know you have exposed to the OM's family, office staff, her parents, friends and family AND her children. Tell her they are all awaiting her explanation for her affair.

She will rant and rave and threaten divorce "I was going to give you a chance but now I am filing for divorce...." blah, blah, blah, yip and yappola.. DO NOT LET IT BOTHER you one bit. It is just the crazy ranting of a fogged out affair addict. Her anger will blow over. \

Don't fight, cower, cringe or try to reason [you can't reason with a falling down drunk] Just say, "so sorry you are upset!" And if she gets abusive, just tell her "have to run, hon!" smile

Got that? Any questions?

GOT IT!!

That is MUCHO evidence. Your wife's confession is plenty enough.

Hopefully they REALLY do support her and will not support her in a sleazy affair.

What about your little kids? Do they live with you?

Also, I would cruise by her apartment tonight with a camera and see if you can get some pictures. Can you afford to a hire a PI for a day? If not, you might be able to catch the OM over there yourself. That would be a really good piece of evidence.

When will you be ready to do this?

There are no other children.....our one and only is 23.

My wife witnessed her own mothers infidelity when my wife was a teenager. My wife claimed it was a cruel way to treat her children.......now my wife has become what she claimed she hated.

My wife is traveling on business next week......I'd like to do this when she's out of town.
Sound OK?

BC,

and I am embarrassed to say that he is 25+ years older than she is.....my wife is 42 and he is in his late 60's!

Yea I heard that, OM4 was 85 in my case, my guess is that he is a practiced hand at affairs and has a good many under his belt, you will be doing OMW a big favor by bringing this one to the light.

His grand-children may be on facebook too, and might be adults.

Also try.

www.zabasearch.com
www.anywho.com
www.veromi.net people search
www.reversephonedetective.com
www.ussearch.com
www.spokeo.com

Some of these will shown relatives or probable relatives.

God Bless
Gamma

PS OM4 was also a heath professional, I sometimes get the impression that they think side action is an entitlement of theirs.

doh2 For some reason I was thinking they were 5 and 7. Oh well, change the letter to read 23 year old daughter. And also, after you expose you can call your DD, tell her you have blown up her mothers affair and give her a heads up. Just let her know your strategy. Tell her AFTER you have exposed so she doesn't warn your wife.

BC, quickly look back at your opening note in this thread. Now consider your current position and intentions. Do you see the difference? You got suckered in by the emasculating societal constructs that equate conflict with evil, and acquiescence with civilzed behavior. You have now been exposed to the understanding that conflict WITH evil is the only true form of civilized behavior possible.

Put together your evidence file, and both sets of contact lists. Then do what must be done.

FOR YOUR OWN PROTECTION - get yourself a mini-audio recorder. Have it with you at all times, and "on" as soon as your formerly glassy-eyed WW becomes the generic screaming banshee bi+ch that appears after exposure.

That is the time when your fortitude and resolve will be tested. Fortitude to understand that what you will have done is in the right, and resolve not to respond in anger and retaliation. Trust me, the law-enforcement goons will love to slap the cuffs on you, whether or not WW's "complaint" has any validity.

She was married the 1st time at 19 years of age because she got pregnant........1st husband was a redneck...and that ended badly...I recently found out she has cheated before I was anywhere around.

Bill, your attitude tells me you will be a great snooper and prob do a great exposure job. It's massively empowering and hits the affair in the gut.

Something tells me you would also like the art of war - read it! Theres also a great thread on here about using the art of war to break up adultery. Will try find it again...

I've already told her parents.

I've already told our daughter.

I will tell our friends face to face, but don't know what to say to do this exposure in the proper way.
A part of me wants to use words like "knife in the back with her hand on it!"........or "Lowlife Tramp"......but I know that 's NOT the way to proceed.

So what do I say?

Next week I call the OMW and the kids they have!!!

Help me with those words too please!?!?!

I will bow to the vets opinion, but keep it snappy, easy to remember. Stick to the facts, throw in a fact that shows how very ugly it is though! Impress on them you are doing everything you can to get through to her. She wil try to paint you as the bad guy. Face to face is good, but I found doing facebook first, copying in everyone I could think of, was good, because then when going face to face, it cut down on explanations. If thats not a possibility, maybe write down a few pars, like a script then hit the phones.

We need to get you an exmple or template, going to look
