I doubt that I could have become softer toward my W at the time.
This was more than 4 years after Dday. The problem was that, other than not cheating anymore, my H hadn't made any significant progress. Maybe if he had, I could've done what the MC suggested. The suggestion was made within the context of our general relationship health, not the infidelity.
I still struggle with being softer and gentler in my approach to my H. My nature is to be straightforward and mater-of-fact. Tact is not one of my strong suits. When I think of that wrt my H, I think he's a 55yo man. He needs to grow a backbone.
