Well WW could not move out, she could not do that to our 10 yr old boy. She is still not wearing the wedding ring, and tells me not to expect much, if anything. She really will not take the time to sit down and talk with me about the future. She says she needs her space, which I am willing to give. But I really can not trust her, and told her she could have space, as long as it was not to continue affair. Question..How much should I check up on her?

Well, what are you going to do if she is continuing the affair? Is it going to make a difference? If you throw her out, you would only throw her into the arms of the OM.

She sounds to me like she is in withdrawal right now. I would suggest just going about Plan A for a while as she comes out of this to see if the situation improves. She has already showed you that she is not at all prepared to leave the marriage, otherwise she wouldn't be there.

gambler, I do agree that its a good idea to tell her you will give her space but you won't play host to her affair. That would be damaging to your son and that is where you should, rightly, draw the line.
