Hi there-Ill try to be as short as possible. Nov 8th will be my 5th anniversary and we have a 4 year old.

Hi, I don't know how much help I can be, but I am there. My H has had 7 year itch for a couple of years now. he wants a divorce, I say ok, within a day he is "seeing" a new woman, within a week he finds somethign stupid about her he doesnt like and comes to me. I was stupid the first 3 times it happened. Now this third time, I don't knwo if I can do it. I love him with all my heart, but I can't keep getting hurt like this. He claims he wants a divorce because we aren't a good fit and we are better friends. Plus add in 2 boys and the fact i am 4 months pregnant with number 3.
Confused,
If you lost everything you owned tomorrow, would you stay with your husband and work with him to regain your housing, income, and future together?
Your honest answer to that question will tell you what really motivates you in your relationship. Frankly, are you married for material status or for compatibility and love? Are

Wow-wisdomtooth2020, what incredible advice.
Confused,
Hi. I hope your husband will agree to marriage counseling. Remember, go in the spirit of discovery of your issues, not the idea that you're going to "fix" him or he's going to "fix" you. That way lies disappointment and frustration!
Some other advice:
1)Living apart during marriage counseling can be positive if properly structured.
