[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So your husband cheats and now you're living the celibate life for appearances? Was it bad sex?

I am not "celibate" I just don't sleep with him.

Sex with him was better, more intimate, and more often... but I did not create this situation, I am just handling it gracefully.

We live together so we don't have to split time with kids and finance another house. I suspect one of us will eventually find somebody and be motivated to change the situation. I will keep the house since I can afford it on my own.

Appearances??? All our friends know we are separated, I don't care what strangers think.[/quote]

Sounds like he is getting his due, and you are being wise to save money and figure things out slowly. You are handling it gracefully. I bet he will move out though once the situation gets to be too much for him to bear, so be prepared for that. [/quote]

I know someone else in a similar situation, not in this area. The men don't leave unless they have somewhere else to go. He has been uncomfortable and will stay that way until the wife forces a change and is ready to change the type of discomfort (new house, older kids, love, career, health).

PP I can't say what I would do, just make sure you're honestly whole and healing through it as best you can and not happy because you have the upper hand in the situation. I wish you the best. I'm sorry this happened. No one imagines a life like this. I've been living separated with my DH for a few months and with a young child but it was not for cheating (reason is irrelevant to this discussion). I can honestly say it's hard for me to not be hurt - but it's possible. So I hope it works out.[/quote]
