[quote=Anonymous]I think I was on the receiving end of a marriage not proposed out of love, despite his I love yous. Ex was always the driver of the relationship - proposed, wanted to have children, etc. I grew to love him deeply and thought we were perfect for each other. One day I stumbled across evidence of his cheating, and things unraveled from there. I think he used me to attain a family which he thought would be a good image for him and also which would stabilize him to some extent. It has been quite a blow to us all (kids and me), and derailed our lives in ways that are very difficult to recover from. I don't know if I can even explain the deep sadness and self-doubt that comes from knowing that the person you loved and made a deep committment to doesn’t love you back and yet has you trapped. For the kids, the pain comes from having a parent who really isn’t interested in them more than for show. [/quote]
