[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My therapist once told me "there is no such thing as a justifiable affair but there is such thing as a justifiable divorce" [/quote] +1[/quote]

i get this in theory but i think we are both better off married.  he is much happier with me than he'd be divorced - i add a lot to his life, have helped his mental health significantly, added stability, and provide companionship that i think makes his day to day much better.   he similarly makes my life better than being single would be and day to day we have a happy relationships with each other. but the thought of staring down 50 years without any real sex is crushing.

[b]divorce seems like the worst outcome for us both but maybe that's me fooling myself[/b][/quote]

You are not fooling yourself.  Your husband is better off with your love and support than without it.  You are going to become more bitter and resentful if you don't find an outlet for your reasonable sexual needs.  While in a perfect world, your husband would grant you a don't ask don't tell policy, he understandably can't.  Go be the best wife you can be and go get your needs met discreetly.  It is the best of a bad situation.[/quote]

Your husband is better off with your love and support ... but I don't think you are better off.[/quote]
