He called me this morning and called me tonight and his friend was in the back ground. Thanks for you advice believer. I appreciate it. He will be home tomorrow and we are suppose to plan our vacation together. I will stay in plan A mode.

That is good news! Plan A is difficult, but the best thing for your marriage. If that doesn't work, there is always Plan B. Hang in there!!

Just an update. We are going on vacation Tuesday and he is supposed to move back home when we get back. We will see what happens. At least for a week I will know where he is at.

I'm so happy to hear that. Take things slowly, and try to stay in Plan A and have a good time. You will want to talk to him about your relationship, but I think I would just concentrate on having a good time together.

Another update. We went on vacation and had a really good time and got back home on Monday and he has stayed here everynight since. He is getting his stuff in the morning from his brothers house and he also changed his cell phone number and we are getting rid of aol and anything that would cause him to chat with other women. He also apologized for what he did and told me what he did was not right. But my family is giving me problems for taking him back. So I dont know what to do on that part any advice?

Your family loves you, and doesn't want you to be hurt.
Stay in Plan A. Try to meet his emotional needs. Go to counseling. Let your family know that you love your husband and intend to save your marriage and make it better.

I understand that they want to protect me. But I want to work my marriage out and I dont want to choose them or him. I want both in my life. But I do plan on staying in Plan A for now and taking one day at a time.

Okay, you just tell them that you understand that they care for you. Let them know that your highest priority is bucking the modern trend, and keeping your family together.
