Do you think that he will actually walk the walk?
I don’t know. I thought he was going to last time he was in rehab. I do know that before he entered rehab as a sex addict a week ago, he seemed genuinely remorseful - though the last week he was in a whiny “you’re never going to believe me” phase.
His affair this time (as with 3 of the 4 APs) was with a married woman. Her husband found out (about a week before I did) and fired a gun at her. (No, my BS did not warn me that our daughter and I might be at risk - but he also didn’t seem concerned about the covid he was potentially exposing us to.)
Anyhow, the AP’s soon to be XBH did text my WH something threatening at one point and engaged in other disturbing behavior. I ended up talking to the cop on the case when my WH entered rehab to ask if she thought I’d be safe living alone. So if my pain and the other husband’s threats aren’t enough for my WH to reach his bottom - nothing is.
On the other hand, last night when I couldn’t sleep (cause why sleep when you can have mind movies going) I started to wonder about his honesty. Yes, he gave me access to his emails and social media; yes, he told me about the first 3 affairs when I never would have found out about them after all this time - but I started to wonder, Was he honest in the details? He would have no reason not to be after ripping my heart out, but I’ll never know. I only know the names of 2 of them, but I could call them. On the other hand, to what end? And do I want to speak to them? And how do I know they would tell me the truth?
