Thanks for your advice. And I agree, talking about the affair is not usually what I want to do. I have never wanted any details other than the month it began. The difficulty for me is that the woman was so close to our family. I've had to get rid of alot of pictures, my kids ask about her alot, they still pray for her at bedtime prayers, etc., so it's hard to ignore it completely. And my husband and I are to the point where we can talk about some aspects of it without me getting upset or sad.
And yeah, it may be that my husband can never let go of his pride to the point that he can get over having had the affair, and having to lose her and alot of what we had together. Only time will tell.
I don't want to seem nosy, but you mentioned you had had an affair. Did your marriage work? Please don't be offended by this question, and if you don't want to respond I certainly understand. Have a great day!
