had an 2 year on off affair with someone ive known for 17 years. Were both married and both have kids. His are 4 and 7 mine is 8. I dont know what to do now its over. I dont know if i should stay with my DH or leave. Me and DH have discussed going separate ways anyway ( he doesnt know about the affair). Our sex lifes pretty non existsnt been like that for years and were only young. At the moment i feel suicidal about it all. OM ended things even though he instigated and pushed for it all. Do i tell my DH? I think that would cause unnecisarry upset to him and the household but i dont know how to move on.

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way.
We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources. You can also go to the Samaritans website or email them on [email protected].

Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.
We also like to remind everyone that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.
