  • Everyone is going through tough times these days. You love them. They love you. You provide for them the best you can. Why? They are your responsibility. What would that say about you if you deserted them? It might be hard now, but if you give up and leave and don't try, things would only be worse for them. Don't give up on the ones you love!
  • I do not think this makes a lot of sense. How much better off do they have to be to compensate for the man they love leaving? Bottom line here, I do not know what the truth is, but I don't entirely believe you. Best guess is you want to leave and "they'd be better off" is your rationalization.
  • If you truly love them then you will consider the emotional devastation your leaving them will cause. You beleive someone else can provide more for them, but who is that someone going to be? How long will it take for your wife to get over the heart break and consider looking for someone else? And what happens to her and your children in the mean time? Perhaps you should think it through a little more.
  • Is this just about money? It sounds to me as if it is...I say don't do that to your family, I don't think it would ever be right for any of you. If you need help with something get help but don't strand your family. Sometimes the bravest thing is to stay.
  • I think you can knock off your little pity party. You come on here whining like a baby trying to get sympathy. Put your big boy pants on and be a man. Your wife had a fling with someone 13 YEARS AGO WHEN YOU WERE SEPARATED AND YOU FOUND OUT ABOUT IT 8 YEARS AGO. Get over it and get some professional help -- seriously. Geez!!! Go ahead and DR me again.
  • The "fling" as you call it has consumed me. I cannot work as normal and I cannot earn as I once did. I made over ONE MILLION DOLLARS in a three year period before I knew she did what she did and I've probably only made about a mil since then, over the past 8 years. So I do not think this is about my pity party, it's about the reality of this horrible nightmare I call a life. I think they would be better off with some other man who didn't want to puke every time he looked at his wife (my current wife.) Why do you have to be so damn mean? I am having serious issues that have destroyed the man I once was and I'[ve tried 8 years to get over it. NOTHING I have tried is working. What else can I do but leave?
  • It sounds like you are in denial.
