Am I a fool

I thought I was happily married til around 7 years ago. My marriage then felt distant and strained. I then saw messages on husbands phone from a women I didn’t know. He had been hiding these. He said it wasn’t anything but shouldn’t have hidden them. I became insecure and paranoid. So searched for more evidence. Found out he was sexting a girl he used to go to school with. Texts that implied he spent a night with another women on a work trip. He just talked his way out of everything and said he was depressed, suicidal and his father was dying. I had no concrete proof. He had a female colleague who he also adored. I told him I wasn’t happy about the amount of time he was spending with her. Found out they went on a trip just the two of them ‘for work’…it wasn’t. He was being vile to me and she was perfect. That was how I felt. He moved jobs because of our issues but took his beloved female colleague with him. He can’t understand why I am so upset. I feel half the woman I was. We have children together. He said he has changed and will never do anything like that again but am I just being a fool??

Regardless of if he would do it again or not, he has eroded your confidence and made you feel less than.
Why did you stay rather than seeking happiness by leaving? It’s obviously making you miserable being with him, so why not just be happy apart instead?

OP

I'm seriously confused. You say he moved jobs because of what happened but took the woman with him. Is that a typo

You’ve put up with this for 7 years?

You're only being a fool if you believe him.
