[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I did not read the whole thread, but I assume DH came clean about things and is not actively cheating.  He's obviously very depressed.  I hope you aren't driving him to insanity with all the couples therapy and talks and whatever.  I don't mean to victim blame.  Just putting out there in case you are riding him too hard.

I would hire a nanny for while you're gone.  Even if it's care.com.  And I'd see if therapist can speak to him to assess suicidality.  [/quote]

I can’t imagine any stranger from Care.com who would feel comfortable being in a house with someone who is thinking about suicide. it’s not fair to the nanny.[/quote]

He’s not considering suicide.  He’s trying to manipulate his wife because he got caught cheating.  He is lying just like he lied when he was sleeping with a woman who isn’t his wife.  [/quote]

Apparently you are posting from directly inside the DH's brain. That's the only way you could have such complete assurance you know exactly what he's thinking.

It's a-hole arrogant posts like yours that probably have kept the OP from coming back here. Sure, he might be lying and laughing at her every second her back is turned. He might be manipulating her. But if he's not, and she has no way to know if he's not, the risk is huge. She can only operate based on what she actually sees and hears from him. Not on what strangers on the internet say when they insist they magically know his motivations. I suspect you were a victim of a manipulative partner and I'm sorry about that. But projecting that onto a situation involving strangers is giving terrible advice, if you're wrong. [/quote]
