I can't forgive myself for cheating on my husband. I think that I am more hurt than he is. I cry more than he does about it. Part of me says to stay and work it out because I married him "for better or worse", I know God despises divorce, and I feel like I owe him that since he's never done a thing in our 6 year marriage to hurt me this much. But then part of me says to go because "God will forgive", and we will heal, but most of all, I want to go because I know in my heart that I don't truly love him like a wife should love a husband.<BR>I am hurt and don't know what to do.

The best thing you can do is to stay married to your husband. Two wrongs don't make a right. If your husband wants you then you should honor your marriage comittement. In time you can make it up to your husband.
