So, next episode in soap opera.
Last Monday I finally got STD tested. Friday got results, one positive. Good news that it is quite mellow one (I think it is not even considered STD in USA).
Texted to my WW "Infidelity is a gift that keeps on giving - got STD". She instantly became an expert on this infection and explained that it can be contracted by other means etc. and that I probably was happy to have one more chance to remind her of her guilt again (she's definitely R material, right?). So I was acting quite cold over the weekend.
On Saturday we went surfing. It's 4h drive to the spot, we left our kids with grandparents for a week, because I have meetings in the office this week. The surf didn't pick up, but I just wanted to sit on the board alone, maybe cry a bit, mourn my wasted feelings of 10+ years.
Sunday had to spend all day alone with her. I didn't feel anything, just annoyance that I have to be with her.
Then finally last night (Sunday night) this conversation took place:
WW: "go to sleep?",
Me: "yes, what else to do?"
WW: "don't know, sing?" (she never sings)
Me: "no, better sleep"
WW: "so, since there won't be sex, you don't want to sing" (she is having her period)
Me: "I don't want to have sex"
WW: "ok..."
Me: "I don't feel clean, I don't want sex until healed"
WW: "So maybe we should sleep separately for these two weeks?" (15 days of antibiotics for both of us)
Me: "I don't know"
Then I fell asleep, woke up at 01:30, she was not sleeping, restless.
Me: "What's wrong?"
WW: "Nothing"
An hour later she got up from bed, I was pretending to be asleep, but "woke up"
Me: "What are you doing?"
WW: "Nothing"
Me: Crickets.
She took her pillow and went to other room to sleep on the mattress.
So I'm happy now that I don't have to pretend to be loving husband and that I have legitimate reason to be distant.
Over the last week I got a glimpse of WSs modus operandi, I think. Previously I had no idea how you can go on with your life like nothing (A) is happening, pretending to be loving husband/wife, etc. Now I think I know how - you just turn on the autopilot. All these touches, looks, snuggling are already in the part of you brain that manages mechanical part, so you just go on doing it, it doesn't require much effort. But after a few days legitimate reason to be distant was very welcome. I cannot imagine how she managed to do it for 10+ years, I would have gone crazy (maybe she did, slowly poisoning me along the way - prior to meeting her I had steel patience, never got loudly angry, etc.).
Over the weekend I had one episode, when I suddenly and vividly imagined her having sex in WC with AP#1 (I think it happened there the very first time, but I have to listen to recording again, to get all incriminating details) and felt pain. The next thought was "why do I care?!" and the pain went away almost instantly. The pain is caused by your imagination showing the person you love having sex with another. When you realize that the only feeling you really have for this person is indifference, the pain goes away (I'm not fooling myself that love is already gone, it doesn't happen that fast, it's just that it's so deep under many layers of worries for the future, for the kids, etc, that I don't feel it).
Sunday morning I woke up early, she was still sleeping. Tears began to fall because I imagined the terror in my DDs eyes, when they start to realize that their world is falling apart. And I can barely see the screen typing it.
(short break to gather myself)
So, as I mentioned in the earlier posts, I listened to her conversation with AP (her side only over the phone and then both sides when he came over to her office (which she was afraid to leave because I track her location)). I still have to re-listen to whole conversation, it started 4:30PM and finished 9:30PM, so not 3h, but almost 5h (some pieces are missing).
The main things I got from it:
- she married me knowing that she doesn't love me any more
- she thinks she was good mother until our twin daughters turned 1. After that, not so much.
- she owns the blame for affairs
- I'm choking her
- she is the initiator at least in current A (it looks like she has feelings for him, he - not so much).
- our sex problems were because she had no feelings for me and she doesn't understand/need sex without feelings (hm, and what about AP#1 whom she f... in WC during her office party?)
- watching sex with horses turns her on (I knew this, but thought that it was in the past, when she was still riding, she never mentioned it again), never done herself
- AP#1 was married
- I know identity of AP#3 (married too, have no idea how to find his wife)
- She tried to get him to do her even knowing that I had STD (I think that would be good wake up call to him if I need him to testify in court)
I hope that if I can manage to get this recording to child protection (if custody is disputed) then, if they aren't complete idiots, I have better chances getting custody.
Will update when I manage to listen to recording (and maybe there will be new ones). Busy day today.
