I have been married for almost 2 years now. For most of the first year of my marriage my husband and I were not together. He was deployed oversees in the army. While he was there infidelity was taken place. When I found out it hurt so bad and still hurts just as bad today. I can't even stand hearing her name said now. i have gotten so jealous and insecure in the fear that he will leave me now or that i am not good enough for him. I have tried to overcome this and want to so bad. It has gotten so bad that we cant go anywhere without me getting jealous just over him seeing a female that we dont even know. It is so bad that we can't watch movies because i get jealous and now I seem to even be jealous over magizine covers. I feel so insecure and unattractive with myself now and feel that I dont make him happy. This also seems to have affected our sex life because now he says that since he is not emotionally happy that he doesnt want sex. I want so bad to feel normal again and get over this jealousy. It seems like we cant even go to the gas station anymore because I get to jealous. We are both totally misreable because of it. I am scared that this is ruining my marriage and that he is going to leave me again. I dont even feel like my self around him anymore, being scared to shower around him or to be nude around him. I feel like I am not good enough for him. I want to change. Some one PLEASE HELP ME!!! I need it so bad. Thanks!! Feel free to email me with any advice or just post it to the bored!!!<P>------------------<BR>Rachel S.

Wow, all I can say is, I feel the same way in my marriage. My husband now feels like he has to hide even innocent things from me because I get so jealous and upset. Boy, can I relate...magazine covers, a woman walking by, etc. I check to see if he's looking. I constantly apologize for my body. I feel the same way as you do!<P>I hope you find strength here, reading and posting. Be sure to read the MB principles, they can give you strength within yourself so you won't feel so scared of losing him.

I feel the same way also, although I am the one who had the A with OM but now it's been 2 1/2 yrs & I still feel guilty for what I did and feel insecure about my body & I have a low self-esteem also nothing I seem to do feels right to me! Hope this helps & I wish you the best of luck!!<P>------------------<BR>Tamai
