[quote=Anonymous]I think there are some people who can’t see past the affair. That’s the end and nothing short of a lifetime of name calling, exclusion and abuse will make up for it.

I don’t condone affairs but that’s done at this point. Both first marriages are over. This is the new normal. Nobody benefits by dwelling in this forever. OP, if you’re living in a neighborhood where your DHs ex had a network, you need to move and start fresh. There’s no way around this. You see how some posters respond on the thread the moment an affair is brought up. It will trigger a lot of people - especially those who new the ex.

Also, I do agree you both need some solo parenting time. Maybe have one week with all the kids at the house, one week with just your kids, one week with just his kids. The older kids especially need time alone with their dad. I think this is the best way for all of you to get your needs met. One week to focus on your marriage should be enough, and the arrangement above has a nice balance.

Good luck! [/quote]
