[quote=Anonymous]What made you ultimately stay? How did you work through things together and individually? Did life ever get back to some sense of “normal”? Do you wish you’d divorced in hindsight?

I was thrown for a loop 3 months ago and we are working through options and counseling. We have young children and supporting separate households would be extremely difficult. Our marriage has not been perfect but there has been respect, appreciation, friendship, good parenting. Romance has dwindled as time goes on (middle age and have been together two decades) but not a loveless, emotionless union. There has been no history of lies, deceit, or otherwise. FWIW it was a one time drunk night out situation, he came clean immediately, and I believe him that’s it’s not serial behavior. Maybe I shouldn’t but I do.

He is ashamed, regretful, remorse, wants to do anything to repair if possible. I think some days I should leave and other days we should try.

Knowing all situations are deeply personal if your partner strayed and you stayed, please share your story if comfortable. [/quote]
