So DD, did you expose?

BTW, I waited years to expose, lead to multiple d-days, worked out poorly. Don't plan DD, plan MB!

time to change the dynamics in this relationship. You will notice a paradigm shift when you regain some power over your life.

Execution plan / prep. :
Update FB acct. to include family photo.
Acquire VAR.
Expose to OM family via Facebook.
Expose to WS family via txt (really hard to write this one, trying to convey request for support saving marriage w/o defending / justifying .)

B) VERY FRICKIN' VITALLY IMPORTANT!!!!! WW is going to get angy as HELL when the inevitable exposure hits. She may consider a trumped-up domestic violence / threat / harrassment charge against you soon. The VAR, which you will take care to ALWAYS have turned "on" in her presence, will save you a great deal of trouble when the mindless law enforcement goons take her word (possibly supplemented by suborned perjury on the part of your child) and cart you off to jail, or otherwise run you out of your own home, because it's easier to do that than to actually, impartially, do their jobs!

Anyone want to wager five dollars on her first quote?

I'll go first. I think she'll say "I was going to work on the marriage until you did this" or some variation of that.
