[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here with an update.  So, it turns out that my husband had an affair with a coworker.  He admitted to it and claims it is all over and now he wants us to stay together and he loves me more than anything, etc., etc.  So I guess he is not divorcing me today or this month, but now I am left with a whole other mess to sort through.  All of my worries about breaking up and not having my kids around are still true, and I obviously knew I wasn't perfect before.  But his actions are just so much to take.  So, so much.  As I wrote about earlier, I tried so hard and laid myself bare for him and all the while he was betraying me in the worst way.

I really hope this is the low point of my 40s and that things can only go up from here![/quote]

OP, I made the post above yours on 08/05 at 14:05. Your situation is turning out exactly like mine.  As I mentioned in that post, my ex was cheating the whole time too.  I am going to tell you another thing:  Your husband wants to stay because SHE ended things and now, he needs emotional support as he grieves the loss of the other woman.  I know this is hard to hear and he might have told you different, but I promise he is coming back to you because things didn't work out with the coworker when he wanted them to.  You might want to stay in the marriage, but this will not be the last time you deal with infidelity.  He would have left you if she would have him.  That tells you the value he doesn't place on your marriage and maintaining an intact family for his kids.  That disregard for you will surface again, so get ready.[/quote]
