What a shame.

This is not the place for her in her state of mind.

A man who abandons his wife and children because of his infidelity is no price. I can do better then that, I deserve better then that.

The difficulties and struggles of today are but the price we must pay for the accomplishments and victories of tomorrow

Men must be honest with themselves before they can be honest with others. A man who is not honest with himself presents a hopeless case

Whether it's her or him, here is what both of you guys need to watch, and read:

Step 1:
http://www.marriagebuilders.com/graphic/mbi1001_infidelity0.html

Step 2:
http://www.marriagebuilders.com/mb2.cfm?recno=4&sublink=33

That is a lot of work and a lot of reading. I suggest you both call a truce about bickering over what happened and get to work.

It is going to take work here, folks. It always does.

Agree. And she thinks her drama will work here because it works at home. He has rewarded her for this crazy, manipulative behavior for years. This how she controls him. And it won't change until he mans up and starts taking care of his family. I pity his poor defenseless children; they have no one. No one. A mother who has lost her mind and a father who sits by and won't lift a finger to protect them from her abusive psychodrama.

He had already sent her. She was registered on 6 October. Did you both read together Mr. A? What is the story behind your wife knowing about this site?

She is one lovin' cake-eater. I cannot imagine the reality that is coming her way now that she is back to leeks and carrots.

She complained he exposed to 516 facebook friends. Wow, he was pretty thorough on that! Good job, Mr A!

Her post says she registered on the 19th. Where do you see the 6th?

MrsA, I hope you will apologize to your husband for putting him into a desperate situation where he felt he had to do that.

And as I said earlier, I also hope that the two of you will call a truce on that minor subject and get busy learning what it will take to put your marriage back together.

"For godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation, a repentance which bringeth no regret: but the sorrow of the world worketh death." (2 Corinthians 7:10)

Don't wallow in sorrow. Do the work that is required by repentance.

And don't fight. "But if you bite and devour one another, watch out that you are not consumed by one another." Call a truce.

I hope the reason that we are not hearing from you is that both of you are sitting down watching videos and reading articles on this site, and maybe even making preparations to call Dr. Harley or one of the counselors on his staff. I hope that you are not quiet here because you are fighting there. Fighting is lethal to marriages.

I apologize I thought it was 6 October I saw this morning. I am confused - was there another WW who was 6 October and just started posting?
