Re: Emotional Betrayal

I feel for you, 129410.

Contrary to what someone else said I don't think you owe anyone anything but yourself. You know in your heart what you feel, therefore staying in an unhappy marriage, other man or not, is not going to make anybody's life any better.

Besides, based on the comments you said your husband has made, I would not be inclined to stay with him. To be frank, he's probably cheating on you already anyway. I am not going to encourage you to cheat with this other man or to leave the marriage because of him. You must decide what you want to do about your marriage at this point and time and follow through. The other man is not important now. He could just seem like an option now because you are emotionally in need, so do not let him influence your decision.

Personally we (my lover and I) just ended a relationship He was already involved with someone else when we met. I fell madly in love, yada yada yada.

The end may sound as if it was mutual but the truth is, even tho I wanted to end it, it's been very hard to let him go. I love him deeply but I know I'd never have a future with him. I want to be happy and I know I can't be happy being his 'other' woman. I see no reason why anyone should stay in a relationship where he/she isn't happy. Life is just too short.

Good luck to you. Tweet
