Glad to hear of the progress.
The corporate culture/power structure mentality does seem to make sense in your scenario. It justifies nothing, of course, but it does make sense that this was the starting point to her path of terrible decisions.
Trust is tough---probably the hardest obstacle that you will have to overcome. But as long as she is doing the hard work--and you acknowledge such--it is hard to ask for much more.
This is where time has to play its part.
Good luck.

I just spent hours reading this thread.

I followed your story very closely as it was eerily close to mine. I hope things are going well for you. I am sure there are many of us here that are interested in how things are going for you.
FYI…
The recent movie with Sara Jessica Parker, I think it’s called “I don’t know how she does it” was a huge trigger for me as it was about co-workers becoming closer and closer.
We all hope to hear from you soon. YOU WERE A HUGE HELP TO ME.

Greetings, old friends. I'm so glad this thread hasn't fallen off the board yet. It's been 5-1/2 months since D-Day, and I'm happy to report that life continues to be good in the CO family. We've continued MC since my last report, although there's not much more to hash out at this point. We're still working on some things (intimacy is still a difficult one for me to deal with at times), but it's so very different and better compared to pre-D-Day. I'm proud of my FWW and how amazingly well she has re-committed herself to her family and our marriage.
I think that things might have turned out much differently had I not had SI and the help of so many posters to turn to. Each one of you can pat yourselves on the back for helping save this one, and I hope that sharing my experience here has helped a few others as well.
She never was aware of this thread here, and my activity on SI will remain as my little secret. I'm not going away, but I do hope that all your past help will ensure that I never need it quite in the same capacity.
Lastly, I just want to offer my best wishes and ((((hugs)))) to everyone dealing with the demons of infidelity. I never imagined how hard it could be, and I know many of you have endured situations far worse than mine. Stay strong, seek inspiration, and make the most of life, whatever path you follow.
Forever grateful,
CO

I'm very glad to hear positive news on your end. That's fantastic. This thread has been immensely helpful to me, so it's even better that it is continuing to go well. Good luck and take care of yourself.

Hey CO,
I am very happy for you and your family.
It is nice to see a marriage succeed against the odds for a change.
Stay vigilant! Stay happy.
Good Luck
