What do you think of him now, in that he is basically just sliding this under the rug---and really not making you accountable---do you still disrespect him----is that part of what stands in your way
How do you intend to deal with the other wife----you have helped to wreck her home---what will you say to her----even tho her main beef is with her H.----it did take the 2 of you to do this
What were your thoughts, as you went thru stop sign, after stop sign---knowing you were gonna wreck the lives of your kids
What could you have told yourself to make it OK for you to do this???????? |
I think my husband is quick to forgive but I don't think we are sliding this under the rug. He lets me know daily how I hurt him and asks me hard questions daily. He is seeing a counselor that is helping him deal with this situation as I am. Everyday is challenging for both of us since it has only been three weeks. I don't disrespect him but I do think that my lack of respect is standing in the way. I know I am not the victim here but I experienced a lot of hurt and resentment throughout my marriage that I need to get past. I do respect the way my husband is handling this situation and I am so grateful that he is willing to give me a second chance.
I am scared to deal with the other woman. Words can't express enough of how bad I feel that her world is going to be turned upside down as well. I wish that the other man would come clean and tell her everything but he said that he is going to minimize it. The only thing I can do is express my remorse and apologize. That phone call or confrontation should be any day now....
When I was in the midst of all this I was just being so selfish. I told myself that I was finally happy and had someone in my life that was exciting, would validate me, understood me, etc.... I wasn't looking for an affair but when I started getting attention I jumped right in. I was content with the emotional part of it but he was pressing the physical. I stupid and arrogant thinking I wasn't going to get caught. I was sacrificing everything that was truly important to me just for my fake happiness in the moment. I know I am an idiot. I am glad it’s over.....
