[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I appreciate all the posts. We are two years past my husband's affair(emotional and physical for about 6 months)and finally I am angry. The first year was 
me in counseling. He didn't want to go but we did talk a lot more about everything. We both let our relationship get to a very bad point. I get it- had someone shown me attention who knows what I would have done. Just being honest. We have two kids who love their family. We were both on our "best behavior" for two years- super kind, generous, intimate. Now we are back to kind of just existing. Not sure what I am looking  here just wanted to share. I realize that this anger also coincides with me getting out more and realizing I would be just fine without him. However- like many others I do feel like if I leave then my kids needs may not be meet. Sounds crazy I know.[/quote]

My dad cheated on my mom.  She walked and had sole custody.  Looking back, I have a lot of respect in her ability to pull herself up by her bootstraps and be a single parent.  My dad only provided the required child support.  She provided what that didn't cover including love and college.

Sure your marriage got to a blah, tuned out phase.  That doesn't excuse his behavior.  That doesn't excuse his lack of putting the work into the marriage, own up to what he did, and go to marriage counseling.  Not wanting to do the work and go to counseling would have been the last straw for me.

Now that you are again disconnected, is he going to have another physical affair?  Do you need him to bring home an STD before you wise up?[/quote]
