I have a 3 week old baby and last Wednesday my husband phoned to tell me he had been having an affair for 3 1/2 years. (It started 3 months after we got married)
I have a 2 year old as well......
He said it started with a drunken kiss at a Christmas party and escalated into more.
He says that once it started he felt it couldn't stop and has literally created 2 worlds for himself.
My world has ended............. we were the couple this was never gong to happen to.
Everyone is in shock - for everyone it feels like he has cheated on them - friends, family etc...because it is so far removed from his character.
He says he loves me and he never stopped loving me, he was just able to separate his life whenever he closed the front door and went to work.
I have no idea how to function, and I have a newborn and a toddler to look after,
I look like me and sound like me...but I feel like I have been replaced with a robot who can get up and do the things that need doing around her... but I am not really here.
