Have NC for this
I have found evidence that "DP" (of 20 years) has been cheating, an affair with a woman he works with.
He has been so awful to me, calling me all sorts, accusing me of making it up, being mad etc and denying everything.
He's not a great dad, he's cold towards the kids and to me and I just want out. He actually makes me feel sick.
I need someone in RL to talk to but I'm just not close enough to my local friends to talk about this in particular. I think they would be shocked at what he's done and probably surprised I've told them rather than someone I'm closer to!?
Other 2 local friends are couples who are equally or even more friends with him, so I couldn't talk to them.
My 2 "best" but long-distance friends haven't replied to my messages. I won't phone them in case they don't want to talk. I will wait and see if they reply but it doesn't look like they will soon. They're very busy with their own families & careers etc we usually only talk once every 2-3 months and email/text once a month.
I think most people don't want to hear other people's problems in RL!? I know it can be stressful.
Tried my mother but she told me these things happen to me because I don't believe in God!!FFS!!
Don't have any other close family.
I guess I want to hear from anyone who has been through similar with no RL friends or family to talk to, or if you have any idea of other ways I could talk to someone who could help me, just by talking, listening...are there any helplines etc? I'm struggling. And I don't want to really put every detail on here as I'm scared he will read it or OW will.

Relate have online counselling via a chat app. You could try try that, you don't need to use together.
