Long story short, I first tried to be the better woman and ignore BF's affair. I was miserable and finally decided enough was enough and kicked him out of the house. I was done and happy with the decision so was moving on with plans to move out of state and start over. I went dark except for financial matters.
About a month later BF starts wanting to come over to visit the cats. I stayed dark and wouldn't be home when he came over. He asked if we could work things out. I said no because he was not and could not be the man I wanted to be with. Plus he was still seeing OW and that was unacceptable. It was difficult but over the next couple months he tried to explain why I should give him another chance. I was extremely hesitant but finally agreed.
You know that I still have doubts as to whether or not this is where I need to be. But I did turn things around so at least I am the one making the decision. I needed to regain control of my own life.
