I would remove those names and the cuss words. Target any aunts, uncles, grandparents, sisters, brothers, cousins, married people.

And that is fine if you can't expose to her facebook today. You can focus on calling family and friends and getting him moved out.
I would pack his bags and ask him to leave.. Tell him you need him out, that his presence is too painful for you.
Did you send the workplace exposure letter yet? If you are waiting for email addresses, you can probably find them on their website or call the front desk. You should be able to get the names of the HR director and a key VP on their website. Have you looked?

confused, when your husband starts getting calls from his family and his supervisor, he will go ballistic on you. You can expect him to say crazy things like "I was going to give you a chance, now I'm not." "you are mean" "its all over now" blah, blah, blah. It is just as if you took the crackpipe away from the crack head. So, don't be surprised and DO NOT LET IT BOTHER YOU ONE BIT. You just tell him you sure are sorry he is upset but you feel everyone should know about his affair. You will not hide it. And if he says "our marriage is over," just tell him yes, you agree it is over and until he leaves that job and ends all contact, there is nothing to save. Since it is over as you say, please take your bags and LEAVE NOW. Don't laugh, [and it will be funny!] don't fight, don't try to reason with him. Don't let him bait you into a bait. It will blow over. I just want to reassure you about exposure. Dr Harley, clinical psychologist and founder of Marriage Builders, has saved thousands of marriages over the years and here is what he says: So when a betrayed spouse asks for my advice, I usually take the position that infidelity is the greatest betrayal of all. After an affair, trust -- an essential ingredient in marriage -- is dashed. If the unfaithful spouse is offended by being exposed, so be it. Exposure is very likely to end the affair, lifting the fog that has overcome the unfaithful spouse, helping him or her become truly repentant and willing to put energy and effort into a full marital recovery. In my experience with thousands of couples who struggle with the fallout of infidelity, exposure has been the single most important first step toward recovery. It not only helps end the affair, but it also provides support to the betrayed spouse, giving him or her stamina to hold out for ultimate recovery.

Yes this site is wonderful for couples. Right now you and scuzz-hubby do not jointly qualify for that title.
Listen to the advice you've been given. You're on the right track. But keep him away from here until you two are firmly recovered.

This will putnhis,leaving on bad terms Call him back and tell him to quit. This has nothing to do with therapy, your marriage depends on him leaving that job and ending ALL contact with that ho. What caused him to suddenly quit?

It might be better to print some articles out to him. You don't want him to see you posting here, because if he knows what you will do in advance, he will prepare himself and other people not to believe you if you expose. I think (but I'm not from the US) that it is unimportant if he quits or is sacked, because as I understand you have a new job waiting for him. If he quits himself it may affect his unemployment benefits, but you will have to ask or google that yourself, I live in Europe and am not familiar with the situation in the US. Anyway, quitting himself will look better on his resume than being laid of for having improper relations with a coworker. no contact letter http://forum.marriagebuilders.com/ubbt/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=2524008You are doing great. Even if he is quitting his job now, exposuree is important, because it helps block the way back to the other W and gives him a dose of reality. Take care, Happyheart

Should I wait to and the letter until he quits? I had to rush to therapy. My therapist thinks it will do only harm no good. I'm not sure (different therapist than the couples one).
I hate this. I feel so helpless

SEnd the letter. Exposure is the most powerful weapon you have against this affair. Dr Harley is a clinical PSYCHOLOGIST [much more credentialed than a therapist] who has saved thousands of marriages using these tactics and here is what he says: Exposure is very likely to end the affair, lifting the fog that has overcome the unfaithful spouse, helping him or her become truly repentant and willing to put energy and effort into a full marital recovery.
