I’ve been married for 21 years and caught my husband for the third time reaching out to woman social media. This time I noticed he’s following young woman on Instagram. I really thought we were gonna make it but once a cheater always a cheater I guess. He’s diabetic and has been telling me for years that he can’t have sex because of his illness but I’m thinking now that I’ve caught him trying to connect with woman on FB and Instagram I must have been naive to think he couldn’t’ have sex. I should have left after the first time I caught him and I wouldn’t be in this predicament. I just feel so alone and stupid for trusting him.

Sorry you had to wait so long for a reply. Many of us don't come by as often as we used to.
Please tell us how you are doing now. How you are doing emotionally? How you are coping with the pain and the hurt?
Do you have firm plans to seperate/divorce? Or are you just thinking about it?
As far as feeling alone and stupid for trusting him... we can only do as well as the information we have at the time, please don't blame yourself.
Do you have any specific questions for us? Or are you mostly looking for support?

I think sometimes about all the pain in the world. I hope we can ease that here, even if only a little bit.

It’s rooted in folklore and often used to encourage persistence.
