Since wife and I are now seperated what do we tell friends, etc. She is telling them only that we are seperated other than her sisters and her best friend who know of the affair. I have told maybe too many people why we have seperated but see that as being an embarressment for her and a possible LB. Wrote her a letter last night that I wouldn't reveal the details to anyone else but my best friend who is coming down from Alaska this to spend time with us/me this weekend. Thanks for all yor help and support. Hopefully I can help someone in the future.

Prior to us leaving the state I had to deal with much of the same type of thing. I was torn between letting everyone I knew know what a #*$& she was (thats the way I felt then), and doing what I knew was the right thing, to tell as few as posible. Even though most ppl figured it out on thier own.<P>Now that we've moved in some ways it is harder than ever not to tell. I make $700.00<BR>less a month than I did prior to the move, and no chance for advancement anytime soon. <BR>It is hard to try and explain why I gave up what I did without telling ppl what she did, but again I know that is the wrong thing to do. <P>And if ppl around here were told it might make me feel for a time, but I would most likely erase any progress we have made towards recovery.<P>Definite "love buster"<P>Jason
