OK- I have been taking some time to try to think about things. This should not be so hard. I sat down and talked to my husband about me leaving. His eyes filled with tears. I cannot bear to hurt him. He deserves better than what I am. I feel so guilty and stupid for letting myself be with someone else (who really isnt worth it) The bad part is I can not stop thinking about the lover. I know there is no future there- he has even backed off some. We use to have fun out in our social scene- now it seems tense. I try to act normal while he acts guarded. (probably because the lover has to face the husband physically every week there) I hope that is it. Because I am starting to feel so rejected. He plays me so well- one week cold-one week hot... I wish I never met him. All I do is think of him and it is not even worth it. I think sex is all that is on his mind and why wouldnt it be. In the meantime, I have a husband whom I have loved 4 ever and I cant figure out how the devil got such a hold on me. I will not tell my husband about this. If he finds out it will be bad. I will deserve whatever happens. If I stop this casual affair with this pro-dawg I would end up ok. Thing is my thoughts and days are taken up with thought of him. Nice verses angry. I never thought I would be interested in this type of guy. WTH was I thinking. It is not easy to get thru thru this without someone noticing the hurt I am dealing with. Now I havent been with this guy for 3 weeks now. We try to get together but something always comes up. Mostly on his part. I am starting to think that maybe the things he tells me are the things he tells other potential lovers. I am hoping that will convince me. I have got to find a ways to get on with this and be a better wife. How do I do that when I feel so low?

Not really sure - maybe you will need to explore the path you are on to discover your answer?

I think if you have not already done so, is to take a long look at the "other man." He is married - he is backing off (reason being, he may be feeling that you are no longer "safe" for him - he may think that you are wanting to be with him and he does not feel that way), if he had an affair with you...he has or will do it again with someone else, you most likely were a distraction for him because his marriage may not be up to par for him at the moment OR he could be a sex addict, you are playing the role of being second or other words...the "left-over" girl.

Take some time and figure out who you are...why do you feel that you deserve less than what you are? this, I think is the big issue here. He is showing you what you truly feel about yourself.

Just my thoughts...wishing you the best Lady Sag
