You sound as if you are doing great. Sticking to your morals and setting boundaries.
Heck, I have a ton of respect for you the way you are explaining it.
Your H is in a total fog. And is incredibally selfish.
He doesn't care about hurting you. Replacing you. Hurting your children.
The bottom line here is that you have to go and GAL. Have fun. Enjoy yourself.
It will not be easy. But you owe it to yourself and your kids to have a wonderful life. You are an amazing woman. You have a ton to offer. You deserve love and you will have it again. Know that! Live that!
Your H is gone right now. Will he come back? Maybe. Will you want him back? Maybe.
No more asking about OW. He will do what he wants. And they are both of such low moral fiber right now, they are not worth your energy. Your tears. Your time.
So you now need to do what you want.
So I ask you... Your H is gone. What do you want?
