What Have I Done :-((((

Was going to name change but haven't got the energy

Just need to offload really:

Dh and I seperated in 2001 for about a year and got back together 2002. 3 kids and I had pretty bad PND although I was in denial
Anyway I went off the rails completley for quite a bit of that year (drink, drugs ect...) I was stupid and had a fling while working at a pub

When dh and I got back together there was some gossip about me and this fling... I denied it, and denied it and denied it. I was 99.9 % sure that if dh was to know the truth we would not stay together so I didn't want to take the risk.

So we got past it, he believed me (although deep down he still had doubts) We moved on and had 2 more children. I carried the guilt which I deserved

The other night dh went round to my sisters who was drunk and feeling sorry for herself, they got on to a conversation about me, pub work ect... and dh bought up the subject of the 'fling'
When he asked her she said 'I can't say anything' Which is pretty much a yes it happened

So the shit hit the fan when he came home, I crumbled and finally admitted it had happened

Now trying to cope with the fall out.
He is amazingly still here and for that I count my lucky stars. If it was the other way round and it was me finding out that he had had a fling I would be gone and never come back so finding it hard to understand how he can look at me, touch me, talk to me???

I have hurt him so much

Got to go, kids awake. Thanks for listening x

Would that be possible? I don't think that's such a bad idea as long as it is agreed that once the move has happened the whole situation is put to bed for ever and not brought back up every time you have a row.....

Not really, we have 5 kids. 4 in school one is 12 and don't think she would cope

Oh dear; I see your predicament.

Children are far more resilient that we give the credit for but you know your dd best.

How are things today?
