He still calls me HON!

About a month ago my husband of almost 8 years was caught having an affair with my good friend and his best friends wife. Her husband caught them red-handed. We did everything with them for 4 years. Including vacations, dinners, activities, etc. They live about a mile away. My husband said he loves her and has left me. We also have a one year daugther. He is still with this woman who was married for 10 years and also has 2 children (2 and 5). Both families are destroyed. My husband sees my daughter still and when I see him he is still acts like the same man only really weird! He still calls me Hon and says it's a habit. Is he living in a fantasy world with this woman? Is he really in love or just addicted to her? I forgot to mention that they are both teachers!!! He teaches fourth grade and she teaches Kindergarten. Nice role models huh? I really want their relationship to crumble so he can feel the pain that I'm feeling. If he would have just left me I would be better off than being "in love" with my ex "friend". It's killing me.

Will it last?

Help - I want him to suffer!!!!

Sorry you find yourself here, allalonenow, but you've found people who understand what you are going through.

Most of us understand your wish to cause pain...to return it to the people who have inflicted pain on you. But ultimately that's not productive or helpful to anyone...it just makes things worse. So I won't offer any revenge suggestions.

Many people have trouble eating, sleeping, and just functioning day to day. That cold lump in the middle of my belly didn't go away for several days. But it is important (for you and for your family) that you try to eat, try to exercise some to clear your head, and try to sleep. If you are having trouble with anxiety or depression or sleeplessness and simply can't function, get help from your family doctor.

Focus on you.

And to help focus on you as a real person, it would help me to use a real name even if it's not your real name. Now's your chance to be "Jane Doe" or "Oprah" or anyone else you want to be.

Chris.

No revenge

No, I'm not going to take revenge on him. I don't want to waste my energy on that. I just wish he was alone too. Maybe someday he will be.

I am focusing on myself but it's hard when you're raising a 12 month old alone now. I work full time too. All of my friends were mutal friends of ours and they are no where to be found. If anything they are still friends with him because he works with alot of them. I'm just very lonely and scared to be alone again. I never thought I would be in this place at this time of my life. I guess it's time to decide what I want out of my life from here on out. I'm in a divorce group and seeing a psychiatrist. I just wish this pain would go away faster. I'm consumed by thoughts day and night. I'm emotionally spent.

We have all been there:  emotionally spent.

Do you have family nearby who can help you with the baby?

I used to think the same thing about our friends, but what I found out later (after a few years) is that the friends were avoiding us both because they wanted to stay out of it and give us a chance to work through our own problems. Plus, they felt uncomfortable being involved since morally what was happening sickened them.

Don't underestimate your friends. They may just not know what to say or do at a time like this.

I'm sorry you find yourself here. Chris has some sound advice. Focus on you.

I always find it amazing how many lives infidelity destroys. I know I wouldn't want either of them teaching my youngster.

My ex also called me Hon after he moved out and we planned to divorce. I also got mad when he did that.

I told him not to do it again and that I thought it was confusing and he also said that it was a habit, but he never did it again.
