OW, I am writing this letter to tell you how selfish it was of me to hurt my wife and family with our relationship. I've caused my wife a huge amount of pain and suffering and although I cannot completely repay my wife for these offenses, Fixing our marriage is the right thing to do.
My family means everything to me so to protect them from any more of this pain i'm writing this letter to inform you that there is never to be any more contact between us. I hope you will respect my request. Any attempt to to contact me will be immediately told to my wife.
I wish I could turn back time....

[from SAA, pg 58]
OW, I want you to know that out of respect and love for my wife and children, I have come to realize that I must never see or talk to you again. My relationship with you was a cruel indulgence that BS did not deserve. While I cannot completely repay BS for the pain I caused her, I will do my best to become the husband she has been missing. I care a great deal for my family and I would not want to do anything to risk their happiness. I will not make any further contact with you and I do not want you to make any contact with me. Please respect my desire to end our relationship.
Sincerely, XXXXX

I had an opportunity to make love deposits and just made false promises. All I did was reassure her that she's doing the right thing. I'm such an idiot. I did stop down today and we had some decent casual conversation. She agreed to consider going to a counselor together.
Sorry about not posting another letter yet. Youth deer season took up most of my time. Boy got a 5 pt
I wish I could turn back time....

If you are serious about saving what little is left of your marriage you will forget about deer hunting this year. Deer season is every year you are in danger of destroying your marriage. That should be your first priority above anything else.

You don't need a final draft. Use the language BH posted and your letter is ready in 5 minutes.
Can you commit to giving this to your wife tomorrow?

I am using that one.. I don't know why I made all the same promises again. I had a great chance to deposit love units and I blew it.

Gave my wife the letter this morning. She wanted to know what this was supposed to prove. I told her nothing, it was just me trying to make amends for my actions. She wouldnt read it while i was there so i dont know what shes going to do with it.
The promises i made were were how i was changing and would never hurt her again. She said she has heard it all before. I said this time is different and she said so was the last time. I believe in what I told her but shes right she has heard all of this before. I had a chance to prove it with my actions and handed her words.
I wish I could turn back time....

You did a good thing by giving her the no Contact letter for her approval.
