Infidelity Support Group
Any relationship in which one partner engages willfully in sexual relations with another outside of the partnership is considered to have experienced infidelity. This breach of trust is often traumatizing for the faithful partner as well as the relationship, and support is often needed to heal emotionally and to decide whether or not the relationship should continue after...
I am far from perfect by any means. Life on life's terms really sucks sometimes & I have no patience or empathy for anyone who takes advantage of another person in such a way that it purposefully hurts them or defiles their character. We all screw up & God willing we learn from our mistakes. I know I have. As human beings we struggle through life sometimes a second @ a time.
I lost my sanity when my Husband cheated on me. I lost every value that was inbedded into me since childhood. Life stopped. I couldn't eat, sleep or function as a valued member of society let alone have enough energy to clean my house or do laundry. I got maybe 4 hours of sleep every night & stopped caring about anything & everything in my life. I drank wine like it was water & smoked 2 pks of cigarettes every day. I didn't eat. I was slowly killing myself & I didn't even care. Dying seemed like my only option. Sad, isn't it?
Guess what? All I could think about was how much I realized how much I really did love him. I didn't want to grow old all alone. I couldn't fathom celebrating Christmas w/out him. When he told me he loved this OW I swallowed a handful of sleeping pills w/ a bottle of wine and laid in a tub full of bubbles & waited for my pain to go away. Stupid!!!!!! I couldn't do a damned thing except try to escape my pain. I'm glad I didn't die today. He told me it would have killed him. I believe it. He said he never knew I loved him that much. Listen you guys, don't ever take anything for granted again. Make his favorite dinner, fix yourself up & be grateful you have TODAY because who knows what tomorrow will bring. To Thine Own Self be True.
I love you all & you are worth more than you can imagine.

I'm still trying to get over finding out about my husband's long term affair......... it was the most painful thing that I have ever experienced...all of the same reactions.... I still have a permanent pain in my heart and I feel sick to my stomach whenever I think about the affair....... but it was a giant wake up call for both of us... we both realized how much we loved each other and after so many years as a married couple had taken it all for granted....

I agree with jrsygrl13. 2 months ago I found about about H's affair. It is the worst pain I have ever had. Wouldn't wish it on anyone. Since then, my H and I have talked an awful lot and discovered that we really do love each other. Trying to work things out. OW is the one who tried to overdose on pills. I am too strong for that. It was a wake up call for me to find myself and to start getting what I want. I do want to spend my old age with this man, been married 20 years. At first, I just took life a day at a time, couldn't even see tomorrow. Things are better but still have a difficult road ahead of us. Good luck, nanayaya! Thanks for the encouragement.

I was the one that stepped out on my husband thinking that the grass was greener on the other side..I had a 3 month affair..But , in the end it was me that put a stop to it.because I was sick and tired of covering one lie up after another..I was the one tha told my husband everything..and I was prepared for worse case senerio... all Hell broke loose when I told him..and for 7yrs after that - he followed my every move, called me from work 10 =20 x a day..Drove me insane..BUT after sever alyrs of counselling we stuck it out together owrked it out and are happy we stayed together..that was 19yrs ago......Life goes on..
