My h had a 5 mth affair with a co-worker. He says it ended 2 weeks prior to me finding out, I say the last time they had sex was probably 2 weeks before I found out, because the night I found out he was on a 1/2 hr lunch for 2 hours.
They still work in the same place. He finally changed his work hours to where they pass through the door when he goes in, she goes out. (One night they work together 4 hrs. It has helped some, although I know crap went on on his lunch and during the day when I was at work.
After the first day after d-day he told me he wanted me and told her he could not be "friends" anylonger. Through these horrible 3 mths I have days I believe him and moments don't. The last 3 weeks have been better than "normal" (pre-A) He has told me that she is dating someone else (Found out in therapy she is dating another married man who is supposably in marriage problems with an alcholoic wife. This crazy B++++ never learns. If I could find out who this guy is I would call and tell his wife, though she won't have to worry about him getting the ow pg, as my h already did that and she's 6 mths along)
ANYWAY....If I truely believe my h, he ended it himself. I don't think you can make a ws end it, they have to do it of their own accord. What you must decide is do you draw a line and say "cross that line and I want you out" or do you just keep taking the abuse and disrespect. You have to tell them enough is enough, and mean it. They are like children, give them an inch they take mile. You keep accepting things, they will keep taking, as they are in a very selfish mode.

I am just fumbling through this myself, but personally I don't think there is a way to force her to open up. I think the best thing is to pick up the peices of your life and try and make the best of things. Change things around the house, get together with friends, do things for yourself. I don't mean to shut her out, but basically caring for yourself may show her "hey, what am I missing here?" That is what I did, yes I cried many tears, but I refused to grovel after my man. I love him, with all my heart, but I have respect for myself. It seemed when he saw he didn't break me it opened his eyes to the woman I am, a woman that is strong and deserves respect.

eemd,
There is a way to end an affair at work....it's called "exposure". Work related affairs have legal ramifications. Write to her boss and his boss (if they aren't the same) and expose this work related affair that puts the company at risk for litigation....inject some conflict and don't chicken out. Could she lose her job? You bet. But that is not your fault. Will she be angry? Of course she will....but that's not a good enough reason to let this continue when the future of three children hang in the balance.

I am going through the same thing. I just found out about the affair with his coworker 5 days ago, so I am still in shock. I immediately kicked him out of the house and told him to quit his job. He says he wants me back, but he isn't willing to quit his job yet, so they still see each other. He tells me that it is over and that they barely speak to each other, but I believe that, as long as they have any kind of contact, it will happen again.
But I cannot make him quit his job and drop all contact with her - he has to want to do that. He has to realize that there is no future with them and that there might be one with me. But I am not promising anything - I don't even know if this marriage is worth salvaging - we have only been married for 4 months and this affair has been going on for 6 - so as far as I am concerned, it was never a marriage in the first place.
Sorry, I know I am all over the board right now and my thoughts aren't cohesive, I just don't know what to do. Sorry for not being much help to you, but I guess the bottom line is: you can't make him leave his job or leave the OW, he has to want to.
