[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My marriage survived (my) infidelity, 7 years ago. Husband trusts me fully. Unfortunately, I feel like his love for me never really returned. I've been waiting and I've finally accepted this year that its not happening. My husband likes me as well as any random person on the street. He is kind and treats me with respect. But if I died tomorrow, it would be a mild inconvenience to him, nothing more. If I knew it would be like this, I would have left. We never went to counseling (he wasn't interested). Both partners have to work to build a new, better marriage after an affair. If it doesn't look like that is going to happen, just leave. [/quote]

Honestly, your self-absorption is a bit mind-boggling.  [b]You betrayed him and your children in the worst way possible, and you’re upset he doesn’t love you like he used to?[/b] What did you expect?   That you could do something horrible and things would get better?

Yes. That is exactly correct. I didn't stay in my marriage so I could wear a hair shirt and flog myself daily. I stayed with my husband because I thought we could rebuild a new life together. I was wrong. We didn't have children at the time, FWIW.[/quote]

Don’t beat yourself up.  I cheated and ended up leaving....even though my spouse wanted to work it out.  I knew the trust was broken, and we both deserved better.  We are both remarried and happy.  I hope you decide to move on and find someone who truly loves you.  You needn’t suffer a lifetime for your mistake.  Good luck.[/quote]

Don’t try to blame the person you betrayed. You are a deeply flawed individual, and all your relationships are likely to fail. [/quote]

Oh please.  I have a great spouse and wonderful friends.  I made a mistake.  I have apologized to my ex-spouse.  F off.[/quote]
