[quote=Anonymous]Why do I stay when DH cheated, well - he admitted it when I discovered it, is getting individual therapy for sex addiction (SA), we are going to marriage counseling, he's apologized, is trying to earn my trust back, wants our marriage to work and is seeking out why he's the way he is and why he's done what he's done, why stay other reasons - b/c we have kids and I want to tell them that I tried (if I decide later I want to divorce), b/c the devastation emotionally and financially on my kids would be horrible (what I assume). There's no black/white. I never in my wildest dreams thought I'd EVER stay with a cheater, NEVER, but here I am, trying my best to forgive (not forget), to trust (probably never fully). Some of you might respond nasty that SA isn't real, but that's ok, you can believe what you want. I treat it as a drug/alcohol/food/spending addiction and want to give my spouse/marriage a fighting chance. I don't feel like I have low-self esteem, if divorced, kids/I would be ok, I'm the breadwinner. So that's my story.[/quote]
