You see, like your husband, I too have a secret that my wife doesn't know about. I've always believed that since some day I will have to probably hear a confession like the one your husband got myself, that it might not be a bad idea for me to have something to bring to the table as well, when the time finally comes. After all, If we've both been bad she can't get mad and how stupid would I feel if the whole time I was the only one being true to our relationship or the only one telling the truth. It's easier to forgive when you need to ask for forgiveness too, right.
I'm glad to see that my theory is sound, two wrongs do sometimes make a right.
I'm glad to hear that your man is getting help for his substance abuse issues and that your test came back negative.
I truly wish you both the best of luck and a long, happy and healthy rest of your relationship together.

Dear Carmaenforcer,
I'm the husband and I appreciate your sympathy.?. Is it that or sarcasm? It's kind of hard to tell... You should know that through the GRACE of GOD that I contacted the enabler (aka "infidelity man") and forgave him. Needless to say I forgave my wife as well. And yes, it's just been revealed to me a few days ago but I had a decision to make and MY heart said 11 years is worth the fight of my life to save. Also, I truly believe that if I had been forthright with my beloved wife this could all have been avoided, so yes I do accept my part of "the blame". Hopefully if you are SERIOUS about your secret (?) you'll go ahead and get it out into the open before it's too late. I regret that I didn't... Unfortunately for this sarcasm I don't see the humor in your reply. And no, I'm not God or a judge I'm just thankful we can live our life together as a HAPPILY married couple. Maybe you can let go of your anger (fear) and let God fill your heart with FAITH....
