Ok... so I've now had some time to get myself back under control somewhat and reflect about what is going on here.
I've come to realize that the thing about this whole thing that bothers me the most is not that she had sex with AP, or even the types of sex she had with AP - it's that she WANTED to have that sex, she WANTED to do those things, willingly, enthusiastically and repeatedly. She WANTED to explore what a sex life with AP looked like.
That's what I want the most - for her to demonstrates that she WANTS to reconnect with me, that she is willing to reset, and explore what our sex life looks like post affair. Not just keep our sex life is in a nice little box, easily defined, static and unchanging, where she is the prim chaste wife acting as gatekeeper.
And to make it clear - I'm not looking for a carbon copy of WW and AP sex life. AP has a very impressive sexual imagination! I am not even sure I could ever even *want* some of the things they did together. OS is the least of things. If OS is in our future, then I don't just want OS, I want her to give me OS (or anything else) because she WANTS to give me OS (or anything else). I don't think I'm asking too much in this.
Her reference to OS was clearly an attempt to minimise the situation, and to try to deflect the responsibility for ending the marriage on me to be the trivial.
WW asked me what changed from the status quo we've established post D-day, and what has spurred these feelings in me. In this case, I guess only have myself to blame here.
A couple of weeks ago I opened the "Do you really need to know?" folder.
The one that contained the graphic, detailed descriptions of what they did each and every time. The naked selfies WW and AP took of themselves and sent to each other. the explicit things WW typed to AP in text and WhatsApp messages, which was so alien to me, if I didn't have physical proof of the affair, I would not have believe it could have been written by WW. References to the gifts of lingerie and toys they bought and used together, or the p--n they had watched and enjoyed together, with WW and AP exchanging "links" for the other to watch when discussing the next time they would be together. The messages show how the EA progressed. As AP would look like becoming bored with her/the A she would be forced to "up the ante" as she describes it to keep him on the hook. At first AP got off on corrupting the "goody two shoes" housewife, and then pushed to see how far she would go. She willingly went along with it.
This is really doing my noodle in. While dating, WW was adamant that p--n use on my part was a deal breaker for her. She (said) found it offensive and degrading, and while I slipped a few times pre A, I did the best a red blooded male could probably be expected under the circumstances. Here is evidence that her feelings on this only related to me, and not only was she consuming it with AP, but seeking it out to keep up the kink with AP? I can't even.....
My discovery of this information (I didn't need to look that hard - I've had it since D-day) has brought up something that happened post D-Day.
Soon after D-day, WW said she wanted to "purge" herself of anything related to AP. She had put together a small box containing the lingerie, toys and other mementos she had from that time, and after showing me the contents, asked if I'd agree to let her burn it all. To this day I wish I had said no.
That box contained everything that is feeling like red hot pokers burning into my soul right now, and I only have a fleeting memory of it and did not really have time to process. As long as I have known her, my WW's underwear could best be described as White/off white/beige/bone/cream t-shirt bras and sensible cotton panties. But that box contained lacy skimpy things in vivid colours, intimate keepsakes between them, and gifts he had given her. That almost destroyed me. I remember feeling that if lockdowns hadn't been a thing, I'd be out of there. But here I stayed.
I agree with all those who have suggested sex therapy, and I think that if I do decide to continue the R, that it will be a requirement for WW to actively participate in sessions, and show progress. I agree with posters, that the pre A situation of rationing and denying her sexual desires inevitably led to the A. A return to pre A sex for her merely resets those parameters leading to a probable repeat. Clearly the sexual denial of herself requires considerable effort.
I do not want AP and WW sex life for our M.
Quite frankly I find some of the things he did with/to her repulsive.
But I do want WW to WANT to explore what OUR sex life looks like going forward. Pre A is not good enough I'm afraid.
And to those who might have been wondering, Plan B means D. I have engaged legal representation which is ready if that becomes necessary.
