[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have had some sleep and put the wine down and reread your messages. I hear you, I hear you. I'm going to take the high road and Hope that this woman will be good to my child. The infertility remarks will really mean and unnecessary I'm just hurt. I thought I was over all of this when the divorce was final, but hearing they were moving in together opened up new wounds. I didn't know he was still with her. I knew he was seeing someone but all my energy has been thrown into work and my child because I've read books about the effects of divorce on young children. It's not a good feeling when your husband leaves you for someone else. The fact that he's been with her for more than a decade means that there's probably some kind of substance to the relationship and I can't just pretend she was one of the many that he would run through in the past. I love my child very much and the last thing I want to do is hurt them. I've made an emergency therapy appointment that I am thankfully able to do via video chat. I'm trying really hard not to feel like this man stole my life I don't recognize myself I wasn't always this bitter..... I appreciate all the advice. [/quote] Good for you! I'm the poster whose ex never really saw the kids again. I know it doesn't feel like it now but you are much better off without this man as your husband. Anyone who could lie to you for so long and live a double life is not someone you want making your health/ money and nursing home decisions when you're old. It is much better to lose him now, when you are younger and can still rebuild your life, than when you are 70 or sick. Go to the therapist. Fake it till you can make it. Keep prioritizing your daughter's well-being and do not DO NOT pretend some great, wonderful person got away. He's not. At some point, sit and write a list of all his faults and all the jerky things he did and whenever you start feeling sorry for yourself and thinking she got such a good guy, pull out that list and remind yourself who he really is. It'll get better. Your self-esteem is just beaten up right now but you'll realize you deserve someone who can be honest. [/quote]
