MY HUSBAND CHEATED ON ME

68

By bornblond8dg

Through the agony of my husbands affair and ultimately our divorce i must say that through it all i'm still standing. We were the parents of two beautiful children happy and carefree or so we thought. They say that time is that ever cleansing healer of what was and how we hope that things will somehow return to the so-called norm if you will. What is the norm when a man, a husband , a father walks out that door never to be heard from again till many years later and for what we possibly may do for him. Is it any surprise really that the woman who my husband left me and our children for leaves him four short years later? Is this any type of wake up call for that husband or wife that may be contemplating leaving their family for someone else. If you must leave my beloved ex-husband, don't leave me for some old woman who is willing to take you from two small children 2 and 3 years old.

The devastation of divorce brought on through an affair situation is more than simply loosing your husband to another woman, it is your children loosing their daddy as well never to be heard from again. Why on earth would a man desire someone who has the ability to hurt his child in such a profound way without so much as a thought. Please someone explain, because to this day i don't understand.

My beloved ex-husband after his second wife left him after two more children, decided he'd had enough of the married life, he decided to just shack up with another single-mom and help her raise her kids, yes that's right another man's children while doing nothing for his own.If i may ask you guys out there, where on earth is the logic in this type of lifestyle. There are some awesome step-parents out there, but take care of your own first people, it's the right thing to do at the very least don't you think?

The years have been kind, the kids have grown, divorce and my husbands affair is way behind us now, the lessons learned is key to moving beyond the agony of divorce. When you learn that life is that great teacher, we were simply kids when he promised me forever, early 20's but still kids as i'm looking back today. The knowledge at the tender age of 20+ is so incredibly lacking as it is when you reach the so called 30+ and beyond. Does it still sting to the core of my being you might ask? That answer would be, you get over the husband and wife thing, but i must say i have never gotton over the kids and their daddy thing. So does it still sting, well yes it does and not as much for my sake as it is for my children's, i know how i would have felt had this been my dad who walked out, and i only can imagine how my children who hide it quite well must still feel as a result of their dad leaving.

The sun is shining today on the horizon with the past far behind. Life is still happening, we've moved beyond I know not what else to say but my husband, my teacher...this ones's for you!


MY HUSBAND CHEATED IN A HAIR SALON

This video entitled, "Steve's Date" actually took place in a hair salon, yes you've got that right my husband cheated on me with his hairdresser. I thought you might enjoy the funny side of my husbands affair in animation. But as many of you know out there, "divorce is no laughing matter." My husband was quite elegantly asked, "do you cheat on your wife?" This i must remind you is my real life story, but not just mine many of you out there who have lived the life of the CHEATING HUSBAND and took on that most unwanted title of a SINGLE PARENT. This video is my life years back brought to life as i put it on the big screen. ENJOY...THE FUNNY SIDE DIVORCE!

I enjoyed reading your hub. It was interesting. I hate to hear that your ex would raise another's kids while not doing anything for his own. Speaks to his character doesn't it? I am glad that you were able to move on.

Yes Nspeel every one does make mistakes but when there are kids involved and the person who cheated just left their family and has done absolutely nothing to help financially or otherwise it's much harder to get over. I didn't toss him away he tossed us away so i don't know, when you see what the kids have gone through as well it seems there is no getting over. I'm still waiting for those simple words of i'm sorry.

Everyone makes mistakes and sometimes there worth getting over. I cheated on my girlfriend 6 months into our relationship she decided to stay with me, now i have a kid on the way and were are going on 5 years. If she would a tossed me away then i wouldn't have even had a chance to make her as happy as she is now... Learned from my mistakes, i know we weren't married yet but you get my drift... Sorry it ended though life throws some curve balls at us some times

Nice article and brings back memories of my past, and how true you are in that the children do suffer.

Thank you for reading my article and for your comment...i do think that young age perhaps contributed, but nonetheless hard to understand why he's still not involved.

I certainly can't provide an explanation for that kind of behaviour, it doesn't make any sense to me. This October I'll have been married for twelve years and I can't imagine leaving my three kids.
