PLEASE HELP ME! <BR>I am devastated and confused. I am new to this and its my first time on here. I just found out that my husband is seeing another woman and has been with her many time. He wants to still come home at night after being with her and come into the bed that i am sleeping in. I love him and want him with me but just thinking someone touched him and he touched her is killing me..God i dont know should i still let him in "our" bed. Please respond and let me know what you would do. Heartbroken

Heartbroken,<P>I'm sorry to hear about your pain. It's a little late for me to be on - and I'm too tired to be much help to you.<P>I recommend that you read all the info on the main site. You're in for a long haul if you want to save your marriage. It will be a lot of work an will take many months. That's the bad news. The good news is that it is possible. Start working soon. Maybe sleep is the best thing now, but tomorrow, start reading some of the basic concepts on this site - and hopefully some of the ladies who have been in your exact situation will chime in and offer some help.<P>-AD

I'm sorry you are in this state. Have you been able to discuss your discovery with your husband? Does he know that you know and how hurt you are? If he does know, is he willing to end contact with the other woman immediately? Or, do you think he is in love with the other woman and unwilling to cut her out of his life?<P>There are a lot of helpful articles and Q&A's from Dr. Harley that I recommend you surf through on this website. You will learn a lot about surviving your husband's affair.<P>The first thing I suggest to you is that you try to talk to your husband without blowing your stack. Maybe go out somewhere in public so as to be on your best behavior, then talk, get it all out in the open. This is your man! Put up a good fight for him if you feel he's worth fighting for!!!

I am so sorry for the pain you are in, that your WS has put you through and the pain that your families will eventually feel when all is disclosed - and that time will come too.<P>My WH disclosed all details of his EA August 6th and even though I told him, clearly, that all contact with her must stop, she continued to call him and leave voice messages. I even called her and told her to leave him alone, he was committed to rebuilding his marriage/family. Of course, she promised that she would no longer call. She waited 2 days and called him, this time at work where she knew he would answer in person and told him that I had called & what I had told her.<P>It has been a long, long few weeks. I feel that I have lived a life time in just a few weeks. But after the last time I confronted him he says that he has made the decision to end it with the OW and try to rebuild our life. <P>I have read everything here, bought all of the Hurley books and encouraged my WH to read this great information as well and been practicing Plan A since July when he admitted to and emotional, but no physicial affair. <P>I basically have little to no trust in him at this point, but love him more than ever and want our family to survive. I do believe that he is trying, but he has admitted that he is in love with the OW and has lost all feelings for me. There is little that we are rebuilding our life on now except our history and our child, but to me that is a great place to start.<P>I hope the road ahead of you is not too bumpy, but be prepared. You sometimes feel that there is a new chapter written every day. But if you really love your spouse and want to do all the work it takes to save your marriage you will be able to keep your head held high that you have done "everything possible" to save your marriage.<P>I have read, many times, on this site that it is possible to save a marriage. I'm just not convinced yet that mine is one of those. When I allow myself to think of all the details and let my mind run as it does at times, I find it revolting to think of my husband "with" another woman. It is just sickening. But we took vows for better or worse and this is definently the worst I have come up against so far. <P>You will find much comfort from others on this site and in the books sold here. Always vent here, try not to with your spouse. I received the following reply to one of my 1st posts on this site -- everyday, ever how many times you need to, take a deep breath and repeat these words to yourself - patience, time and understanding. They really are words to live by while facing what we are up against.<P>Best of luck to you.<BR>Heartbreak25130
