Dealing with your spouse not only having an affair but a child as a result and how it affects your day to day life and the lives of your children.
What we go thru in situaions like this , It is not about the child, It's the drama of the other woman. And that is what I can't deal with, It is too much sometimes. Then you find yourself upset at your H all over again, for bringing all this mess in your life because he could'nt put on a condom and avoided all this in the first place. You can try to be strong and supportive of our husband to save your marriage, but the stress of it will always haunt you from one month to the next and for that reason, I chose not to be involved in the o/c life. And how I feel has nothing to do with that child, This child has a mother is she chose to raise her child on her own with no help from us that is fine, If my husband want to see his son, that is fine too but I can't put myself in this equation and believe I will blend in and some how make this right for my husband, to ease his guilt. He has to accept responsbility for his child that was born out of an affair but at the same time I keep asking myself, where do I fit in this, or why should I. I am never going to be happy with it, The situaion becomes, "it is what it is and your life will never be "the same" So expect these underhanded things to happen, and don't be surprised by any of it. This is a knife in your back that will never stop turning
