When signing a greeting card whose first name should appear first mine or my husbands?
Traditionally the husband's name was always placed first.
Ex: Bob & Nancy Smith

It is now dependent on the sensibilities of the family you are sending the card to.
I have friends who put the wife's name first. On our home phone message my wife's name is first. But often at Banks and other "traditional institutions" they always ask for my name first.
So it's really your call. Today, anything goes, but if you want to stick to "Man is the head of the household" style values, place the man's name first.

More Modern Perspective
Addressing a letter to a married couple in the man's name although traditionally and historically accepted, it is no longer universally accepted since it originated in times when a married couple was viewed as one entity and that one entity was the husband. Women now have their own independent legal status in most modern cultures. In fact, in more modern cultures one might ask the question as how do you address a letter to a married couplerather than to a husband and his wife.
It is important to know the preferences of the couple but the following methods of address are acceptable and you can read this and more at the related link:
Married, she uses her husband's name socially
Mr. and Mrs. John Kelly
Married, she prefers Ms.
Mr. John Kelly and Ms. Jane Kelly
Ms. Jane Kelly and Mr. John Kelly
*Do not link Ms. to the husband's name:
Mr. and Ms.John Kelly is incorrect
Married, informal address
Jane and John Kelly
John and Jane Kelly
Married, she uses maiden name
Mr. John Kelly and Ms. Jane Johnson
Ms. Jane Johnson and Mr. John Kelly
If you can't fit the names on one line:
Mr. John Kelly
and Ms. Jane Johnson
*Note the indent, either name may be used first

How do you address letter to former mayor?
As a former Mayor of a relatively small city in the U.S., it has always been said to me that "once a Mayor always a Mayor", it seems easier for non- elected officials- regular citizens to want to remove an honor bestowed upon someone in our political system.
I would suggest in introductions "the former Mayor, John Smith, in person greetings to be "Hello, Mayor Smith, " they will then say to refer to them less formally or it will be clear you made the right choice. In written communications, The Honorable Steve Jones is appropriate. Recognizing a person's service to their country by participating in our form of government does not eliminate their citizenship, but does acknowledge their service and oath.
* Since the person is no longer mayor and they are replaced then it would revert back to 'Mr' or 'Ms.'

Why would a husband cheat on his wife with his wife's sister?
There really is no perfect answer, but here's a couple of possibilities: There is something missing at home and feels that he needs to go elsewhere to get it or maybe he is an addict and can't control himself. People cheat for many reasons. What should happen before cheating occurs is a honest talk about the intentions of the one whom is not happy. Men who cheat alot of times cannot commit to one woman and think it is there duty as a man. Real men are not liars nor do they hurt the ones they love. A relationship that has this drama in it usually had issues before this happened that were not taken care of. Please remember that it is not you. The two of you married each other and are supposed to be honest, caring and considerate. If the relationship wasnt working for your husband as he invisioned it after marriage, he should have come to you and been a man and let you know before doing anything disparaging to the marriage. Now you must weigh your options , do you want to the relationship to improve, will you ever be able to trust him again and how will he earn your trust back. Move on with your life so you can enjoy your self and be happy with someone who will show you the respect you deserve. good luck. if you cheet on your husband than you realy neep theripy! WHISPERS: how stupid can you get!
