What things can you do instead of contacting him? Do you have a plan?

dheezire,

Have you written a formal 'No Contact' letter? The reason why I ask is that the act of writing it and mentally going over the reasons for getting out of the affair and staying with your spouse can be helpful in supporting your boundary.

As a practical thing, open a clean document and start typing reasons why the affair was bad. Type out reasons why you want to save your marriage. If you have the strength for it, type out what you think is wrong with you that let you have an affair in the first place.

This kind of thing is hard, but will help you focus your mind. As long as you are at your computer typing, you aren't reaching out to your AP. If the computer is too much of a temptation, do this exercise on paper. Good luck.

(edited for typo)

Does your H know about the A?

The best way to stop it in it's tracks is to tell your BH & his BW.

You don't know the MM's real name? Does he know yours?

Can you eliminate all means of him contacting you? Cancel email, change phone numbers?

Become a busy-type person. Join a gym. Go for walks. Volunteer. Go to the public library and sit and read books from the self-help section. Idle minds are the devil's playground, to paraphrase an adage.

It is obvious that you are really struggling dheezire and are lost as to what to do. Can you give some details about your A and when DDay was?

Have you read the Healing Library here on SI? (Yellow Box at top left)

as well as these articles?

The #1 thing your BH needs from you, is for you to end the A and 100% honor NC.

A close second is honesty. Tell him whatever he wants to know. Don't hold back details because you "don't want to hurt him unnecessarily." That is a mistake so many of us make, there's a name for it: trickle-truthing (TT). BHs on SI say the details they make up in their heads are often much worse than the truth. If your BH gives you the gift of R, give him the gifts of honesty and transparency. The more you reveal now, the easier it'll be later. I was still lying and TT'ing 2 months in...which set us back to ground zero (or worse) every time! Trust is hard to rebuild when you tell your spouse "yep, that's the whole truth" and a month later...as more of the A fog lifts...you recant.

As for finding OBS, does your AP own a home? Where I live, it's easy to look up deeds and mortgages, marriage licenses, etc, online. Feel free to PM me.
