Update and request for support:
First of all my latest e-mail was briefly mentioned on yesterday's radio program. I'm the guy who "isn't using any voice recognition". smile

Ok here is the latest. Letters went out to everyone yesterday. The two friends got letters asking them to apologize to me and never support WW keeping secrets. Third friend got a no contact letter. MIL and FIL got a letter from me apologizing for not caring for their daughter the way I should have. Finally, a restricted certified letter went to OMW with info on how to contact me if she wants more details. My WW will (hopefully) send a follow up letter to MIL asking her to apologize to me and never support another A or any dishonesty. Oh, WW also sent an apology letter to my sister for how WW treated me.
All letters should arrive today.

I'm very nervous about everyone's reaction and WW doesn't agree with sending the letter to OMW but was willing to do it for me. WW also doesn't want to cut out any of her friends so this is creating conflict.

WW doesn't want details shared probably. It will be best in the long run for you both. As far as friends, I remember after dday telling my wife we are spending the year shoveling crap. That any crap friends or relatives are gone. If we are to have friends, they will be faithful old friends or faithful new ones...

Hello all. Here is an update. We are 6 months into recovery and are doing really well. We are becoming experts at meeting each others EMs and continue to revise and improve any areas where we fall short. One of the reasons I haven't been on much is because spending our 15+ hours a week together keeps me off the computer. This is good because I used to use my computer to hide away. Anyway, thanks to phone counseling and the advice here my marriage is rapidly advancing to the "better then ever" category.
