I have been married a long time. I have the perfect family and had what I thought was the perfect life. We traveled the world,had the gorgeous house,great cars,all what we needed,till my world hit rock bottom.
You see my husband who I adored and loved was having an affair with a woman half his age.Doesn't matter how I found out,but it was the worse time in my life. the fact that he was in love with this woman or at least thought he was. Months went by,theraphy sessions,texting and phone calls from her in the middle of the night. Letters,messages vowing his love for her. It was as if life was taken from him and he became a stranger to us.
Until, I vowed to forgive,but..he needed to go.My sons were hurting,my daughterwas inconsolable. it was time for him to go and fiqure who and what he wanted.
He moved out. I was ridden with pain,my kids were strong but angry. The other woman moved in for the kill. She was determined to relinquish her prize even though he belonged to someone else. what she couldn't fiqure out,why I was so determined myself to win him back.
This story has a happy ending.
My husband woke up and realized he was about to loose everything..I mean everything. Was it worth to have a the new t and a he had found than to loose his family?
Many thought I was nuts,crazy..why I wanted my husband back after what he had done. I married the man that came back . The man that realized the other woman was just a flicker for the moment ans that was all.
Ladies we survived. We have an amazing better relationship now.The lesson for my childerwn,you can suvive stuff like this and move on. Oh,the other woman, she tried,oh she tried and finally married some poor guy months later. God help her!

Thank you Ali for your story of forgiveness, and believing in your marriage. Marriage is a sacred union and the good news is that your husband was "ready" to do the work to get his marriage back.
It took trust on your part to accept him back and for that I am happy for you!
You have a great testimony to share with others.
In gratitude to your truth,
Nancy
