| Did your desire for AP grow and intensify from lack of contact and communication? Or did your lust for AP wean and found yourself reconnecting with spouse? |
Or, did your disgust for yourself grow or shrink as you carried out the charade of being a family? |

I'm sure I'll get skewered.
I was engaged in what I now realize was an emotional affair. Going on vacation with my husband and child was what made me recognize it for what it was: being unable to reconnect with my husband, missing my "friend" etc. I told my husband about the EA when we returned home and we separated a week later. |
Good for you. You realized what you were involved in and rectified it as best you could. |

So after he said good riddance, what eventually happened? |
| My ex used to cancel family vacations at the last minute "because of work issues". He was actually going on separate vacations with his mistresses. Nice! |
We got divorced, amicably and without anyone saying "good riddance" to anyone else, and went on to have a cordial coparenting relationship. |
| My AP would want sex right before and right after vacations. He would have sex with the partner sometimes on vacation, but not always. |
Oh sure I'm certain everything was just marvelous for all involved especially your innocent child. But who asked him/ her about their feelings anyway? |
That sounds lovely. You're living the dream... |
The therapist we took her to to help cope with our divorce asked, in the way that therapists do. I ask. Her dad asks. Everyone, including her, agrees that her life is marvelous. I'm sorry your divorce/your parents' divorce/your marriage/your ideology is so bitter though. I hope you know that not everyone shares your experience of the world. |
Worried that your affair partner will reconnect with their spouse while on vacation? Feeling insecure? |
Are you now with your affair partner? |
Perhaps |
