Hi
my husband had an affair and has moved on with this new woman. She has children of her own but is separated. It’s only been 3mths but husband (or I suppose now my ex) has told me he’s introducing our daughter to his girlfriend next weekend, I just feel sick.
I am sure she is a nice person but I just don’t know how to act. I feel myself so rejected and hurt but I’m trying to give off the impression all is ok. it hurts like hell though and I feel like it’s a kick.
any tips? Thank you xxx

Just act like it's all OK and fall apart when he's with them if you must

Well, firstly she isn't a nice person as she had an affair with a married man with kids...

But, sadly it's part of the new world you're now in. You have to accept it will happen. It's shit though, been there. Hugs OP x

I'm so sorry OP - I've been there and it's like death by a thousand cuts so I really feel for you.
Make sure you meet up with people who love you if you can, if you can't then go for a loong walk whilst they're over there and have a weep if you need to. It does get easier, promise x
