his guilt makes him need to belittle you so he can feel better about himself....does his word vomit make you feel better?
No, it is a waste of energy for you to hunt down the woman that had an affair with your husband. You are going after the wrong person! Your husband is an adult and he was at fault and he could have formed the word 'no' to any affair, yet he persisted and it is your husband that you should be communicating too and perhaps marriage counselling to help you with tools to better your marriage if you want to save it.
You already know two wrongs don't make a right so the best thing to do is let your husband know about his affair and that his friend told you and is now interested in you. Be careful of gossip! Communication is the best skill anyone can have so sit down and calmly discuss this with your husband. It is also up to you to make it plain to your husband's so-called friend that you are not interested in him and stay clear of him. This is no friend of your husbands because he is hoping to have an affair with you behind your husband's back.
You will have to think very clearly about telling your husband about having an emotional affair. Most men do not believe a woman can have an emotional affair and not have a sexual relationship. There is a high possibility that your husband may not believe that when you had an affair there was no sex involved although this is highly possible, but not in his mind. What you can do is learn good communication skills and you must have had your reasons (that clouded your judgment) to have an affair and you need to deal with these problems. Take time to think why you felt the need to have an emotional affair in the first place and then sit down with your husband and express why you are unhappy in the marriage and perhaps seek Marriage Counseling or the two of you could make a better effort with each other to make your marriage a more solid one. Once you have broken that bond of trust with your spouse it is difficult to gain their trust back.
ANSWER:I'm not really sure, but I have some idea of why. Could it be that he is waiting to make sure that he will not loose both his wife and his mistress? It could me his waiting for you to calm down and he knew the hurt he gave you from his affair? there are lots of reason why he is waiting..
It's not what he (or she) doesn't do, its what they do. But no, it is not necessary to call one names, or put one down for behavious to be termed abusive.... but you'd need to define what IS being done.
Time mends a broken heart when a wife is broken hearted over her husband's affair. It is a grieving process much like losing a loved one to death. Once the husband cheats he has broken that bond of trust with his wife which is devastating to her and it will take time for him to earn her trust back. The wife must go down her own road of life alone to decide what she wants from her husband; how to handle the situation after the affair and if she wants to remain in the marriage or seek out marriage counseling. If the wife feels by cheating on her husband she will either get even with him or mend her broken heart it will not and proves nothing leaving her feeling used and guilty for lowering herself to her husband's level.
She definitely does. Be careful around this woman unless you want to end up in an affair. Also, talk to her husband and see what he thinks about it.
You cannot trust your husband as he is in it for sex and you are enabling his behavior. He is like a Tom cat doing as he wants while hurting you deeply and also using the woman for his own enjoyment. You are enabling his behavior and need to sit him down and talk things out. Make sure he understands you are not putting up with his affairs.
Absolutely, especially for the first few months or even a year. The reality of your husband's affair will hit you like a brick and your life already change. The word "affair" is not your big concern, it will be some date of the month when your husband said that his working late but now you know it wasn't. Even watching tv and it's all about infidelity, this will take you down even you don't want to feel it. The betrayal and trust that your husband broken between the two of you will be hard to give back. This will be the fight for your life to how strong you are when it comes to pain. Remember not only the word "affair" but it can also be the smell, special date, some movie on t.v. and a lot more. If it help I was and still on the same place as you are even mine was 3 years ago.
Yeah If I Had A Husband :]
If your husband has never had an affair before this then no, you should not leave him. Some men 40 plus go through 'Andropause' (some men different than others) which is similar to women's menopause. The man can be moody; depressed and feels old and would like to reach back into his past to see if he is still attractive to the opposite sex and all the while they are unaware of what an affair will do their wife if she should find out. Although cheating is never right 'to err is human.' If you and your husband can sit down and communicate to improve your marriage or see a marriage counselor that is better than ending 30 years of marriage. There are many people who have gone through what you are going through and their marriage has become stronger.
Let's see if we can unravel this. Your sister's husband's father's brother is your sister's husband's uncle. The uncle's daughter is your sister's husband's cousin. There is no relationship to your sister, unless your sister wants to call her a cousin-in-law. To break it down to its simplest terms: She is your brother-in-law's cousin and no relationship to you.
