[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone I know who married a former affair partner has problems with jealously and suspicion of cheating.

My first husband and I divorced after four years of marriage, one child. My standard of living took a big hit but I was so glad to be free of him. I've now been married to the same man for 30 years. His standard of living was greatly improved by our marriage but he generally doesn't hold up his end of the bargain. I stay married because getting divorced would upset my social life and standard of living. I'm not impressed with the state of 50 plus women who've divorced. Their exes almost always remarry a younger woman while the wives are left single, hanging out with other divorced women or desperate, dating men of lower social standing. The men often dump them after meeting someone younger.[/quote]

I do know of people who married their AP and are happy. Or, at least still together. Not that I know of people who divorced to marry an AP. And both are still with said ex-ap.

I personally ... if I got together for real with my AP would have to do counseling first. I mean, how COULD he trust me (and vice versa) to only want to be with him?  Actually, he might be easier as he seems to be only capable of having sex with one woman at a time, so if he stopped having sex with me I'd know. But would he be suspicious of me all the time? very possibly.[/quote]
