I received a text message from 1 of the woman that he was seeing, she texted me a picture of their newborn baby.

TL;DR - If you're on this subreddit and haven't read this book, you need to drop everything and read it right now! Our children and grandchildren are glad that Mimi and Papa are in love; we are amazing and they are (and we are) the benefits of grace and healing. Having discovered my husband (now ex-husband) was having an affair earlier this year, I've been riding the infidelity/betrayal rollercoaster.
It actually sets people up for failure because they are avoiding the necessary long(er) term hard work that is necessary to emotionally recover. Why did it send you into this line of work to preach to others something that you were unable to accomplish? I hope that cheaters can change and have a healthy relationship in the future, but the relationship with their current partner has been destroyed beyond repair.Some of them are open about their stories, while many remain private about this part of their lives. My takeaways: I'm not crazy for choosing to move ahead with the divorce and moving out, I can't save this by myself, there is nothing I can say or do that will force him to empathize with what he is putting me through or feel bad for what he's done, and I didn't do anything to make this happen or deserve this. The book is based on the stark polarity of 'right wrong' 'saint sinner' 'good bad'-with no in between. In the two years since reading the original version, I have finished my master’s degree, started and finished a human resources certificate, transferred to a position that is closer to home and far less stressful, improved my credit, traded in my 2001 beater car with 176K miles on it for a new 2016 Toyota Corolla without any cosigning or financial help from anyone, participated in a theology seminar wherein someone actually paid me to fly out to California and do theology for two weeks (it was amazing), lined up a peer-reviewed article to publish, and had a septorhinoplasty that fixed my crooked nose along with my breathing.
I, too, am bothered by the “relationship experts” who hold out an expectation that a betrayed spouse can somehow get their marriage back on track without the full-hearted effort of the cheater. The real life questions and her responses at the end of the chapters were very interesting and I'd say that I'm much more knowledgeable about the language and thoughts around processing infidelity.The unfaithful spouse had a multitude of other choices they could have made, but understanding the various influences at play in a person’s life is necessary for healing, whether or not the marriage survives. Every cheater is 100% responsible for their choice and its consequences, but understanding an affair means giving attention to the unique vulnerabilities at play. Yes I understand the hurt pain and anguish but reinforcing this is a time of possible reconciliation if harmful.
Great Deal
