I have not been this site in a really long time. My H goes to Mass with us on Sundays (but I think only because he has our son Saturday nights.) He meets our daughter and I at Church. I doubt he would if he didn't have our son because he knows it's important to me that our kids go to Mass.
He comes around for Christmas, Thanksgiving, etc., but only to be near the kids. I don't think he is ever going to give up the OW. She is 27 now, I think. She was 24 when she started calling my house.
Lately I have been feeling like he is just using me so that he can have more time with our kids, like he is leading a double life.
Our kids have never met the OW and our son doesn't know she exists. I think he might be afraid to tell him because it darn-near cost him his relationship with our daughter. Since she is older she was quick to figure out there was a third party involved, particularly since the OW called every 20 minutes when my H had our kids, in the beginning when he first left. It was as though in her immaturity she WANTED our kids to know of her existence.
Is there still hope? Seriously. And please understand, I am not looking for the typical, "There's always hope." I just want to know REALLY, because at this point I don't think he is ever coming back.
