husband had a pa/em for 10 months - is it possible to recommit to M and if so to rebuild wouldn't it take years especially since he feels he loves this other woman so much?

Rebuilding is different for every couple. Check out the Betrayed Spouse Support board http://messageboards.ivillage.com/iv-rladultery and the Healing after Betrayal support board, http://messageboards.ivillage.com/iv-rlhealingaft they have been through what you are going through. Usually marriage counseling is a must as well as NO CONTACT with the OW.
