You don't mind playing second fiddle to the OW? You're hoping that maybe he might come back to you if the affair ends?

So you're going to be content with staying unhappily married to a man who's living with another woman. And you're willing to split the cost of filing with him?

I hope that works out for you.

I don't see him changing any time soon because he's got his OW in one hand and you taking care of his kids in the other.
