[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Another hour or so until we tell them. They've been enjoying their morning doing various activities all day so far.  The closer the time gets, the angrier I get with him.

Last night, he finally, FINALLY acknowledged after over a year of therapy that they told each other they were in love with each other.  He denied, denied, denied for a year.  Lied in counseling.  And now I know why nothing was going to ever work.  The more I process this, the angrier I get.  Such a liar, such a betrayal.

She isn't even attractive.  She has giant horse teeth, including one big gray dead tooth in the front.  Very mousy.  Yes, this is me being petty and bitchy, but dear god, just let me have this pettiness in this moment.

I normally think parents with young children should work it out and cheating should be forgiven but your husband is not just a cheater, he is incredibly rude and intentionally hurtful.  Be strong OP, for you, for your kids.  You will be better off without him.  Never bad mouth DH in front of children.  Your kids will figure out what happened one day.  How they feel about him will depend more on how he is as a dad more than how he was as a husband, which isn't fair.  Find friends to vent on, never your kids.  Good luck.  I was high school when parents divorced from Dad's affair.  My biggest immediate concern was whether I could stay in house, whether we would be moving, shuttling custody.  Those were my questions.  Different ages, but I think that is kids biggest immediate concern.[/quote]
