DH cheated but won't unfriend/block the OW on social media

[Anonymous]

I guess I need to mention that this isn't the first time he's slept with another woman.

Oh gee! ... that's important... do you think maybe that's important??? .... DCUM, we are being jerked-around by this Op. I call Troll

PP. I realize I was unconsciously quoting Hamilton lyrics in my response, lol. Okay, carry on.

OP here. Yes, actual intercourse and I'm positive there was NO protection because DH doesn't like to use any. He also thinks this woman is a saint that doesn't sleep around so I guess it's impossible to him that she could have an STD. I'm disgusted.

Holy S***.

Why do you WANT this guy? Honestly, if you told me you want him to just pay the bills for a few years so you can sock away money, I'd actually admire that.

OP, he wants you to kick him out. Within a few months he will have found a new girlfriend, and tell you that he never loved the OW this way.

He's not worth it.

He never admitted to me that he loves her but I read the texts and they tell me all I need to know.

OP.. again.. in the nicest way possible.. grow a backbone. Do you have self esteem issues? Because it seems like you feel that it's acceptable for your own husband to not be in love with or respect you.

If this is like the story I know he still has emotions for her, but she just thinks of him as a fond memory and plays it up sometimes for her enjoyment. Dump him! I doubt she will have any interest in the grovelling mess. And he will be on his lonesome. You sock $$ away and treat yourself like a queen for your kids, ok?

OP said she didn’t want the other woman to win. She thinks that with him physically by her side even if night and day he thinks about the OW she still wins even though you and I wouldn’t consider that winning. The heart wants what the heart wants, I guess.

Does this OW have a husband? Tell her husband, be roommate with your husband and don’t give him any sex, and find yourself an AP.

Yes, I like all of my bills paid. I think I shouldn't have to contribute a dime after all he's put me through.

I work. I don't make much but I do get to keep every cent.

I can understand that. But you should emotionally disconnect from him. He does not love or respect you. Find someone else. You might fall in love again, and who knows, maybe decide you want to be with that other person instead. I say move on. Let your husband deal with whatever this is. Don't you think you've suffered enough?

Save save save.. and invest... then when your youngest is almost 18, leave your husband. Have an affair in the meantime. Just be his roommate.

Yes, she was married too at the time. Not sure about now though.

Your motivation here seems .. off. All in external appearances. No mention of love for DH. Perhaps this is why he is looking elsewhere for emotional connection?

OP, you should watch Friends from College on Netflix!

That show describes your situation perfectly.

+1 Also, he's not loyal and true to you. It's all one sided. That's not how it's supposed to work. "Letting the other woman win" - I'd say she's already won since YOUR DH is pining after HER.. for 8 years.
