[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he'd died, I'd get much-needed support from friends, I could still be close to his family, his life insurance would set me up financially, I wouldn't have to worry about his mental health problems or future guilt if/when I date (he doesn't want a divorce and believes his actions were out of his control).

As it is, I'm the victim of his betrayal, but I also lose my best friend, my financial stability, my wonderful in-laws who are my only family, and my social life because our mutual friends have no idea how to react and are being awkward instead of rallying to care for me like they would if he'd died.  But he's as good as dead to me, right?  Except he's living and breathing and being a constant reminder of my grief and loss.

Sorry for the rant.  It just sucks.[/quote]

I am a widow and I find this offensive as hell. You have no idea. [/quote]

You are right that those of us who have never been a widow have no idea what you have gone through.  But if you haven't had your life upended and devastated by infidelity then you have no idea either.[/quote]

Which is an argument that the opposite post (I'm a widow it would be so much easier if my husband was a cheater) would also be bad. Except no one has posted that. [/quote]

As opposed to "bad post" or "good post" you could just look at is as how people actually feel about their situation.[/quote]
