He was saying how it doesn't matter what the relationship is to the affair partner, no contact must be observed. He added that even you were able to do this even though it is very difficult. Really? I'd love to listen if you happen to have a link. FBW in recovery

Basically he was explaining that no contact is essential and that "we even have a case where a woman's sister had an affair with her husband. This couple maintains no contact even though it is within the family." The gist of his comment was that if you can do it, then others can too.

We have a poster where the DD17 is still very angry with her Wayward mom and I link your story. Thank you for being a MB example (not that you would've preferred to be a different example). Is she still posting? I think it would be great if there was an area on this board for children to discuss their emotions and strategies in dealing with an affair. My daughter really could have used it. The best thing that happened for my daughter was when Dr. Harley gave her permission to be angry ... furious ... with her dad for cheating on me and us. He told her she had the right to never speak to him again if she didn't want to. Putting expectations on others to forgive can really do so much harm. FBW in recovery
