Read Dr. Glover's pdf "No More Mr. Nice Guy".
The whole alpha thing is crock. Women fall for who they perceive as alpha. But what is alpha to one is not to another and someone who used to seem alpha at one point in time becomes omega later.
You still associate yourself with being a "good guy" which means you have demonized and kept caged your "bad guy" aspect. The truth is you are both and neither. The fusion of good and bad is the real you. What is bad anyway? Striking back in self defense when someone mistreats you? How is that bad? Having firm boundaries and being a savage about announcing them and maintaining them? Hardly.
You have every right to grow and change. You are not tied to the persona you crafted years ago that you now call "goodguy" You are just a guy. Hint: women fall in love with guys, not good guys. Good guys are phony. They hide their sexual urges, their rage, their sincerity and their agenda out of fear of being rejected. Out of thinking that being nice will manipulate others into giving them what they won't demand. Sounds not nice at all. So why not let that go.
You need to follow our advice here or this will keep happening over and over. Her affair is NOT YOUR FAULT. She's selfish and abusive and entitled. She needs you to hold up a mirror to her and leave her alone with it. If she prefers to run out of the room and avoid growing up that is her choice.
You in the meantime, need to hold your head high and find a safe partner. But first do the self growth that brought this lesson into your life. Learn it all now. Become the man you know you can be.
Try the Knowledge for Men podcast. It's free on iTunes. Every show features a different guest on self development. It's for men, but there are women guests, too. Work on you. The right partner will manifest out of that.
This high level executive can't tie your shoes. He is so insecure he has to seduce another man's wife into a secret affair to get his ego kibbles. Think about how lame that is. How low would you have to feel to need to do that to feel loved and validated? How long before he cheats on her or her on him?? Ever think about that??

Yes
I would think that could put an end to the R, what do you think?
LV is a pretty dangerous place to go for a woman without boundaries in the midst of a shaky R.
All it takes is a email to the OM and it's back on. Or just a "How you doin'?" from a dude at the roulette table.
Sorry man...

I agree the LV bachlorette trip would be a deal breaker. To think that shes still going tells me where her head is at. If you are going to D I would tell her before and not go TBH.

Sorry mate I'd just tell her it's too little too late.

If and that is IF you are 100% absolutely sure that you want a divorce then don't go. It will be torture for you. Tell her after you drop the kids off for the weekend. She can decide if she wants to stay home, go alone or take someone else.
