My son is relieved and happy that I�ve filed for divorce. He couldn�t understand why I took so long to make that decision, but glad that I�m doing the right thing now.
He�s furious and enraged that his wife has been cheating for half of their relationship. After I told him that it�s been going on much longer than we initially thought, he confronted his wife about it. She didn�t lie, only said that it meant nothing to her. She felt like she came in third place after my son�s career and their kids. Apparently my husband made her feel special and desired. She�s living with her cousin and my guess is she�s still seeing my husband. If they�ve been sleeping together for five years, I can�t imagine that would stop now.

She didn�t lie, only said that it meant nothing to her. That comment makes it even worse. She destroyed 2 marriages and her children's family over "nothing."

I guess people like my husband and DIL think sex is just for fun and sport, which is fine if they were both single and free to do whatever they want.
I know I shouldn�t do this to myself, but I keep wondering if my husband and DIL were laughing at me and my son, how they were able to fool us for so long. I feel so stupid that I couldn�t pick up on anything, how were these two able to carry on for years? I don�t get how someone can deceive people they claim to love.

Do you think he married you for your money?

We signed a pre-nuptial before getting married. I don�t know how to explain his cheating.

No, he works and we split all the household bills equally. He moved into my house, but kept the condo he owns. I feel like he owes me part of the rent he�s been earning from his condo.
I feel so pathetic, but I miss him. It�s hard being alone again.
