I feel like I need him because we have been together for so long that I wouldn't even know how to be "single." We are high school sweethearts. I love him and I think he loves me. He tells me he does and that this was a stupid thing that did not mean anything. I just don't want a pattern forming that every ten years he cheats. I am 38. I could start over now, but I am worried about forgiving him now and than ten years from now something happens again. How do I trust? Is it possible that he is sorry and that he realy wants to be with me? Could this have been a slip-up? Do you think that giving him another chance means I am weak? I love my family. I love the things we do together. My heart breaks for my four kids thinking that they might have divorced parents. I just don't know. Will I ever feel secure? Will I always question everything he does? If I do, is that a healthy way to live? Is it good for my kids? We will be going to counseling in a few days. Hopefully I will get some answers. Thanks for listening and responding. It really means alot to me.
