[quote=Anonymous]I married at 30ish.  Divorced about 7 years later.   We have one child.  The proximate cause of the divorce was his affair (but there were other issues, too).

He is still with his affair partner some 10+ years later.  He never married her.  She wanted a child and they never had one.  (I think this was mostly ex-H saying "no".)  They don't seem very happy.  He checks up on her fairly regularly--  he seems to think she could be cheating.  He developed an addiction to pain pills.  The child I have with him basically hates him.  (Years ago he was ready to ditch her if I would give him another chance.  I passed.  I wouldn't be surprised if he cheated on her and in his mind would justify it: "GF knew I was a cheater when she cheated with me on my now ex-W.")

Me?  I am doing fine.  Our kid (I have sole custody) is happy, healthy and successful.  I have had relationships but have not found someone I would remarry.  At 50+, I suspect I will not remarry but who knows?  I am financially secure and pretty happy.[/quote]
