Desperately need point of view of women who don't know me! Been married 5 yrs with 2dd's aged 4 and 20mths, got married when pregnant, marriage has not been great for a while, lots of small problems, dh hit me when baby was small, long time ago and under provocation but still bothers me, can be a bit aggressive, and also usual stuff like being a lazy sod. I have been seeing my ex, nothing happened except the odd kiss, coffee, texts etc, he is married with teenage step dd and dd aged 6, marriage has been a joke for a long time. We have talked about leaving our partners for each other, I am desperately in love with him, he says he wants to marry me eventually, but still love my dh, but doesn't even beging to compare how i feel about ex. Really believe strongly in making a marriage work but have been trying for ages, worried about impact on kids etc and also what others will think of me, do i take a chance for something that's really amazing or keep "sleepwalking" through marriage cos it's safe and easy. Ex has said he will support me and my kids as I am still at home with youngest, just so scared and confused, please help!
