[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not the PP who called OP delusional, but I think that person is right.

This is not to be mean.  OP is going through the stages of dealing with infidelity, and they are pretty textbook.  Right now she is in a very specific stage, which is panicking about what it would mean to end her marriage.  As she says, "impoverishing the family."

Eventually she will come to realize just how profound this betrayal was, particularly since her husband involved their child in the deception.

Folks are just trying to help her along that path. [/quote]

Not the OP, but I disagree. [b]Folks are trying to help her along to the conclusion they want, based on their own situations[/b]. Frankly, a lot of these posters sound pretty unhealthy themselves (I'm looking at you, Freakshow Lady, who prescribes asking a 6-year-old (!) to tell his mother what dad talks about with the other woman. OMG. )

The positive is that there are plenty of examples of how spite can go horribly wrong and make a bad situation so much worse. OP's husband made some bad decisions. No rule book saying she has to follow suit where her kids are concerned. [/quote]

Agree with this.  There are some posters here that are bizarrely interested in having OP follow their recommendations.  [/quote]
