I denied my affair for years. I turned to alcohol, turned away from all of our friends and devastated my family. Now, I come clean and admit my sin, and he wants a divorce. He is falling in love with someone else. He is with her right now. I am home alone. And the other man, is happily at home with his wife and children. He has been out of my life for a year. But I have carried the burden. Twenty seven years of marriage gone.

Did MM leave you first? At what point did you husband leave you?
How does alcohol fix anything?
But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams -Yeats

sorrow upon sorrow. Sometimes the spouse literally believes that the WS is a completely different person then who they believe they were. And consequently, finds them to be a complete stranger. How long was the affair?

A lot of questions need to be answered for us to help.
Why did your BH think you were cheating?
How did you meet the OM?
How did the affair end?
Have you done a NC letter?
Does the OMW know?
Is there NC?
How long has NC been in place?
How long has your BH/WH been having an affair?
How did he meet her?
How, why did you confess to your BH/WH?
How much does he know?
What have you done to prove to your BH/WH that the affair is over?
Has your BH/WH told the OMW?
Do either one of you work or live near, with your OP?
