I open an envelope in the mail from this women who said she had an affair with my husband for one year
It's been four months since my life has fallen apart. I received a letter in the mail from the person my husband had an affair with. This affair was eight years ago while my husband was living out of town for work and came home for the weekends. We were trying to sell our home so I could move where he was. I didn't see this coming. One day I am picking out napkins for the house and the next I open an envelope in the mail from this women who said she had an affair with my husband for one year. He admitted it. A couple of months later I found out about another affair - this was a one-night stand. There was also an emotional attachment with another women - at this time he tells me he's sorry he loves me, etc. Why haven't I left yet? Why I am still staying. I love you, how pathetic am I, is that? I never thought I would be this pathetic. How many affairs have there been? I am not sure any more. I do not know who this man is. It's funny that while he was having this affair I was reading the Pilot's Wife and I was so freaked out that a man who lead such a double life. He threw our marriage away with both hands with these affairs - but I don't have the guts to end it. I hope that we can make this work -- but I believe I am in denial. I called the women who wrote the letter who denied everything. All I want to know is the truth - not sure I can handle it though.
