When somebody tells you who they are - listen. I didn't and now have spent 15 years with someone who acts like the perfect husband and father but cheats and lies as if he (we) had nothing to lose and has done on and off since the start. I've forgiven before but don't think I can this time. I'm heartbroken about telling our children - everything seems so perfect in the surface, how are they going to make sense of it in year 5 and year 8. But he has absolutely ruined everything - don't want to explain exactly why (too outing) but suffice it to say infidelity related but with potentially serious ramifications for him (and therefore me and the children) outside of our relationship too. What a mess. Can't sleep, can't process any of it.
Where do I go from here? I just want to go to sleep, then go to work and carry on as if tonight had never happened... although it would have eventually inevitably. Please tell me the kids will be ok. I'm so distressed for them.
