I've opened up the secret of the affair to my parents and my very close mentors/advisors to keep me accountable and in check. This is out of my control and will blow up in my face if I keep it secret for longer.

 

I've scheduled some time for counselling throughout this week at least until the wife gets here over the weekend.

 

In the meanwhile, I have stopped all communications with the OW and did not tell her what I'm doing or planning to do this week.

Just a suggestion, but you might want to start identifying your wife as 'your' wife? My wife sounds so much more personal and intimate. The other woman can keep her 'the' identifier.

Thanks cozycottagelg. We all know that's what we ought to do. Deciding and carrying whatever the burden of the decision we'll make. One way or the other I already hurt my wife.

 

Correction, you're still hurting her.

 

The question that I'm still pondering, and would be great to hear from those that's been through it is this - is worth giving up everything to go for the one that you wanted to be with all along?

 

It's a selfish and stupid question. And no matter what answer you get, you'll make a similarly selfish and stupid decision anyway.

 

There is no good way to end this double life of yours, other than ending it cold turkey and being honest with your wife and the OW's husband.

 

Get on with it.

That's a start.

 

Now the trick is to block her completely and maintain no contact.
