My life: The Mess
| Tue, 02-17-2004 - 11:38pm |
Ok, here it goes... I had my first affair 8 years ago. I stayed with my husband after he found out and quickly became pregnant with our first child. Throughout my pregnancy I dealt with comments like "if you wouldn't have gotten pregnant, i would have left". I was focused on being a "perfect" wife and mother until 2 years ago. I'm still in contact with him occasionally but he lives 700 miles away. We had planned a romantic getaway but he didn't come at the last minute -- i went anyways and proceeded to have a very wild few days. That resulted in a pregnancy that my husband nievely believes is his doing. (For some background, 10 days before becoming engaged my husband encouraged me to abort an unplanned pregnancy--my biggest regret in life.) Recently, I've become involved in 3 more affairs... I feel like I'm out of control and living on the edge. When I try to tell hubby how unhappy I am in the marriage he just lists all the reasons I should be happy. I'm just feeling like I'm going to end up destroying my children's childhood should all that I'm doing be discovered.
any advice is greatly needed and appreciated.

Lost hon... my advice to you... get help... and get it now!!!!
Not only have you put your own life to risk with unprotected sex... but that of your husband... and that of your unborn child.
