4/ If not, stop hiding behind friends and family and emerge from your denial which is hurting those so close to you. The masquerade is over. Your mother will forgive you. I repeat, your mother will forgive you, and perhaps even your wife's family too after a little while.

6/ You have friends that know how that process works and they clearly love you so do it. There is no shame in seeking redemption, and it will show everyone that you have taken responsibility. Anything less than the truth, now, is not an option.
7/ Do it for yourself, your mother, your family and your friends. Stop putting them through this, stop hiding behind them, and stop hurting them.
