She's an awful liar, and its a small town, eyes everywhere.

ok. Do not accept her BS.

You know what you need to do.

And you have all the time in the world to do it.

Yeah man, thanks for the advice, makes me stronger in my resolve.

I'm through with her BS, I have no reason to trust her right now. She doesn't want a divorce.. I know that but I don't know why.

I shouldn't be the only one who is fighting, she wants me back she knows what she has to do.

And I finally think I know what I have to do.

Chris

They never want a D when they can get their fix of affection from both sides.

Just watch her now. You cannot control her.

Yeah I've heard of this before, however if she really didn't want a divorce or wanted affection from both sides why would she be so cold? She knows that I will leave her. If she wanted to play me and sleep around surely she would be trying to win my trust and stop being such a *****

I don't know what she's holding on to, and frankly right now I don't particularly care.

She knows well OM is a dead end. He's a loser as you told us. She won't give up the ride anyway. She's too addicted to him now, it's what only matter to her NOW, over her children, over her reputation, and of course over you. She's at "I will bother tomarrow" state. That's why I told you to expose her to her family and friends the very moment she get into the car/plane to that travel. She will start getting calls in the middle of the trip. Tell them she chose the persuit to bang this OM over her family after being warned and you had to divorce her. Don't let them rewrite and gaslights. Nad go completely dark on her.
Maybe deep down she doesn't believe you will follow through with the divorce, maybe she believes she can always manipulate you into coming back after banging OM, maybe it's power trip for her anyway, tride thing (Is she that stunborn normaly?), who knows. Better try not to overthink it. She's an addict.

Hard 180, go dark on her, exposure, lawyer.

Well said guys. This is pretty much what I thought, Ill file for divorce ASAP.

It doesn't matter the outcome, if it snaps her back to reality then maybe I will forgive her, if she let's me divorce her then I needed it anyway.

Win win.

One thing is for sure though, she will control my life no longer.

Chris,

One of your earlier posts resonated with me. I had posted in Betrayed's reconcilliation thread about how I knew I loved my wife back over forty years ago. We had a huge fight and went to our separate homes totally and utterly angry with each other. We remained in no contact for almost a week. During that time I realized that eventhough I was still unhappy I was more unhappy without her. You have indicated just the opposite. Take a true inventory of your feelings for her as your wife and not just as the mother of your child (she'll always be that) and see if your happier in her company or not.

Finally, as I posted earlier, be sure in your mind if not hers that she knows that if she leaves for that weekend away you will divorce her. You know that you will always think, rightly or wrongly, she cheated if she does

Chris you need to tell her family that she is having an affair with Ian, is going with him on this drinking/drugs/sex weekend, and that the cover of going just with her friend is a lie.

Do it now with the explanation that you can't accept being treated like that and you won't be the fool who waits for her at home with your child for her to return from her sex vacation with another man.

She's holding onto her "beta-provider": that would be you. It's your function to work and provide for HRH and any spawn she may have while she seeks sexual thrills elsewhere with "higher value" men. She sees you as "low-value" sexually and doesn't think you can get another woman under any circumstances. These are all subliminal, limbic type "feelings" and most likely nothing she has actually pondered consciously. See: MMSL, NMMNG, Roissy.

She also thinks you'll cave and take her back. That you are bluffing.

Exposé to her family ASAP
And get with the lawyer and file ASAP
Before she goes away
She may finally realize her plan isn't playing out.

We all agree that she is being a lousy wife.

My two cents is a recap of everyone's advice.

Exposé her A with the posom (Ian) to everyone in her family.

Tell her if she goes away that you will D her.

Then go dark, see an attorney and get the ball rolling.

No matter what she is showing you no respect and is being a *****.

She can't be too on earned about your child if she is ging away for a wild weekend with the OM for sex and drugs.

So draw the line in the sand and move forward with your life.

Se is young and quite immature.

Chris, if you read my post "Bad Night", you'll see my wife is this way when drunk as well. My wife recognizes this now after what happened this weekend and has swore not to drink again. Not that I see how far my wife would take it when drunk, there is no way I would let her go on the adults only weekend getaway. If you know your wife is like this, tell her your concerns about going. If she respects you, she'll not go.

He already told her, she said she's still going.

And FB, drunk or sober I think you've only hit the tip of the iceburg in your situation.

Good luck to you Chris!

Good.

This isn't just to let her know you mean business.

This is what is best for you. Be no one's BACKUP husband.

Better yet on the day she is coming back, take all crap and clothes and pack them and put them on the front lawn.

Also expose to family. Don't give her a chance to let her twist the story with you as the bad guy.

Make sure that they know when she had the choice of working on her decaying marriage or a sex vacation with another man, she chose the latter.

Keep us posted.
