Didn't want to read and run. You can allow yourself time to grieve for your marriage - you don't have to be on all the time.

Start new traditions - for us this includes Christmas Eve box with hot chocolate and pjs and snuggling up on sofa. Maybe a nice candle. - you can build in some "me" time. Or maybe do some cookies etc together or colour or paint something

You will look back and realise time just the 2 of you is really special

Be kind to yourself

You need to stop looking back, and move forward. Your partner is an arse, he didn’t just cheat on you, he cheated on his child too. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

You have had a tough time, be kind to yourself and this Christmas will be better that last Christmas because you can set the agenda on what you want to do.

Happy Christmas to you and your family, I hope 2024 will bring joy and happiness in your direction.
