I will try to read/post more as I have to get to work, but just wanted to say that I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOO sorry. Anyone who has never experienced a relapse just does NOT know what they are missing. It is incredibly painful. I just wanted to let you know that we are living proof that a recovery IS possible after such events, under the right circumstances.
I felt like such a fool as well, this time of year last year, thinking we were in recovery, him cheating for 2 months right under my nose. Even got the "have to work late" line, and believed it. What a fool, I think now. But you know what? I trusted him again (at the time). There is nothing wrong with having a loving, trusting spirit and wanting to believe the best about those we love. That trust was trampled on and abused. That was very very wrong of him.

I just read "Out of the Shadows" by Patrick Carnes, the guru of sexual addiction literature out there. Would recommend it if you are thinking H has a sexual addiction - it will give you some insight into the mind of an addict.
