I've Been In Love And Betrayed

I’ve shared my story with other groups in SW...

I've been married for 20+ years, but dealing with my wife's emotional affair for a long time. We've managed to put our kids first and not allow things to blow up. But the title of this group pretty much sums up how I feel most days. As I've gotten older, I've realized that career advancement, financial success, etc. matters little when all you really want is to be loved unconditionally and to return that love. I'm guessing my story is not all that unusual.

Decades ago i literally walked away from a small lifetime guaranteed fortune because of betrayal; i've never,ever regretted my decision. I refused to live a lie even for guaranteed comfort; sometimes,ya gotta take a stand! It's about dignity and peace of mind.
Get a divorce. Whats the point of having a miserable fake marriage for pretense? "For the kids?" To teach them that marriage is misery?

@SStarfish I agree, the kids know, they feel it, they see it. My husband and I have recently ended our 28 year marriage and our boys are ok with it. They prefer it this way.
I admire the fact that you’ve wanted to keep your marriage together for your children’s sake. My husband and I stayed together until our children were grown; we’ve been divorced for two and a half years now. In looking back I don’t regret staying, but I sure am glad it’s over. I hope one day you’ll find the companionship you so desire.

Happy is the new rich. Money means nothing when you don’t have love in your life.
