Thank you all for the support. Just to clarify some questions, I am on both birth certificates and I am the primary parent. I handle all the pediatrician appointments and everything at school.

We’ve been together for 12 years and share a lot of mutual friends. I reached out to someone we both get along with well, and they mentioned she’d changed a bit. I didn't tell them about the cheating, it's not my place to share that, but thanks for the suggestions to speak to other people to confirm that her shift hasn't just been in my head.[/quote]

OP, I think you can stop worrying about whether anything was in your head. Get working on straightening out the logistics and getting you and your kids in a better place. But I would also recommend you get lots of therapy. Not because you did anything wrong but you seem to struggle with setting boundaries and trusting yourself. You did not create this situation but you may have let it go on longer than it needed to by not wanting to rock the boat and trying to make things easier for her. Best of luck to you, OP. [/quote]

Thank you for the kind and honest words, I am planning to find one tomorrow, I do feel trapped at this moment and as our friends are mutual I need to talk to someone.[/quote]
