[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here again. 
I dont want to act crazy, I'm uninterested in revenge.  I'm interested in advice from BTDT women who have had to deal with this. The first time she shows up at a soccer game, what do I do? When she shows up to pick the kids up, what do I say?  Just pretend I have no idea who she is? Like I dont remember her? 
I just dont know how to handle this next phase with class and grace. [/quote]

Treat her like a business associate.  Factual, small talk, etc. Nothing mean but nothing extra.  She has access to your kids part time and you need her on your team, whether you like it or not[/quote]

I found out my husband of 17 years was cheating on me the entire marriage with one person (and the last 6 months of our marriage with many people).   Less than a year after me finding out, we are divorced.    He is with his AP, he has introduced her to our kids and to old, used to be, mutual friends.   I have not yet met her but when I do, I intend to do what the poster above states.   Factual, polite but not a word extra.   In a perverse way, I'm very grateful to her.   She is not the reason my husband cheated.  He cheated because he has no honor, integrity or morals.    No one can make someone cheat in less they want to cheat.   So, the reason I'm grateful to her is because thanks to her being an immoral, foul person who will cheat with a married man, I found out who my husband really is.  If she hadn't been willing to engage in his pathetic fantasy life, he would have eventually found someone else to cheat with and then all the pain I've been through the last year and a half would have hit me later in life when things would have been much, much harder on my kids and me.   So.....my plan is to treat her politely, but not engage.  If he / she pushes it, I will thank her sincerely for being the type of person she is because she saved me from wasting more of my life with the a piece of trash.
