Discreet is the word you people are looking for, not "discrete."
Discrete means "individually separate and distinct" which, if you think about it, could actually be the result of your discreet activities. Or indiscretions, if you will.

If you are that miserable with your spouse but unequipped to end it, then you have two options that would allow you to salvage your dignity:
(1) work on your marriage; or
(2) be honest with your spouse and ask for an open marriage until you two can officially separate.
In a perfect world, simply "working on your marriage" would resurrect your sex life" In a perfect world, a low sex or asexual spouse would be empathetic to not meeting reasonable sexual needs and agree on a compromise outside of the marriage.
In the real world, the choice is between divorce and losing access to kids part time, messing up finances, putting kids through trauma of divorce, or discretely getting reasonable sexual needs met outside the home.
I agree with this completely. Also with the discrete satisfying sexual needs elsewhere.

Worried that your affair partner will reconnect with their spouse while on vacation? Feeling insecure?
Perhaps
Ha ha. No doubt about it. OP is worried that her (I'm assuming it's a her) AP will have a great time with his wife. Enjoy that, OP!
Why do you assume it's a woman?
Because women hope their AP leaves their wife and man dread the day their AP leaves their husband.

Best answer of the thread. Good for you!

When I went on vacation during my affair it actually made me realize even more why I needed to be divorced. We fought the entire time because my spouse was miserable and virtually destroyed everything that should have been "fun", which is usually the case with most things. Nothing is enjoyable. There was no reconnecting going on, just a wedge being driven in further.

Or you could be honest and ask for an open marriage.]

My DH and I went on vacation while he was having an affair thar I didn't know about. He and I had a wonderful time, sex every night, a romantic dinner and even skinny dipping.
He is lying to you, OP. Don't you think you deserve more?

Agree. Rationalizing the affair is a crutch for losers. If your marriage isn't working, fix it or leave it. To stay in it and screw someone else is cowardly and trashy.

Nice comeback...but I suppose that's the best you can do when your genitals do your thinking for you.

+1
Sometimes I would get so pissed about their vacations I'd refuse. Now they no longer go on vacations.
