I'm sorry, I know this site is for Mum's rather than Dad's, but I'm hurting and I don't know what to do/where to go.
My wife of 1.5 years (together for 8.5) has been found to be telling someone else she loves him. I can quote from some texts between the two of them:
"If you want to jump I'll be waiting to catch you with open arms. If not I'll respect your choice and we can be friends."
She has lied in the past in order to spend time with this other man. When she was caught out with that due to his wife finding out, she changed her number, changed her Facebook ID and all sorts to stop the harrassment. I'm still not over this even now, and this was months ago and she promised me that nothing happened, she just wanted to be there for her friend.
She continues to work with him (this I knew, though they weren't supposed to see each other often), and they've been exchanging texts again despite her promises to me. The content of these messages has torn me apart. I just don't know what to do :(
She says she was never going to leave me, but how else can that message be read?
I'm sorry. I don't think I have explained myself very well. I started crying again half way through this. It just hurts so damned much.
I asked her what she wanted, and whether she was even wanting to build bridges. She said she didn't know, and how did I feel? I don't know how I feel but what I did say was that to even consider it would mean huge changes for her. Her first response was 'I'm not leaving my job'. She works with this man. To save our marriage that would be my number 1 requirement.
I don't even know if there is anything worth saving. I forgave her last time for our two boys and their lives, but I can't live my life unhappy for them can I? That can't be right?
