DH finally stops working long hours, books holiday to see friend

I am feeling really, really disappointed. My dh works in finance. He has always worked impossible hours and it has been very hard on the marriage. I am basically a single mother. I haven't worked in years as both DCs have SN/autism and have been in and out of schools, struggling for years. This year of work has been particularly bad. My DH finally reached his career goal, but he has even been staying in the city overnight during the week. He says he is not having an affair. He finally has some time 'off' AKA an actual weekend to not work and he had booked himself a flight to visit a friend in a hot place. He claims he forgot he booked the flight, but it was for the first weekend he knew he would have free time from work. I am incredibly sad and let down. I have booked an appointment with regards to starting divorce proceedings. I just can't stop the hurt. Also I am very scared as I haven't worked in years while looking after the DCs, mostly on my own (I haven't got family to help), have gotten overweight and feel too unattractive to start over looking for a new partner and just generally feel worthless... Please help, anybody!

Spotifymuse - If only I agreed to the objectification of women!

Nolim - I haven't read the bit about the counselling; my mind must have omitted that upon reading. In that case, it changes my viewpoint completely.
