Re: (Untitled)
Sounds like without him your life would be a whole lot stressful. He has no job, no honor, and is a big lying liar. Therapy might be an excellent idea to help you get the strength to handle the other situations in your life. Hope your child is better. The only thing you can do is care about your child and yourself.
Also, now this woman knows absolutely this guy is married with a child. Not her fault, but she can have him. He sounds like a real catch and she sounds like someone he deserves.
Wow, I am so sorry you are going through all of that. I can't imagine how you must be feeling! I think where you go from here depends on how you feel. No one knows your relationship or your guy like you do.
Do you still love him and want to be with him? If so, even though his behavior has been seemingly unforgivable, I think you should try counseling with him. Sometimes, getting a third party's perspective and advice can help someone see things he never did before. Furthermore, the decisions you make right now affect not only you forever, but your son, too.
If you don't love him anymore and don't think that he can ever be trusted again, let him go. You sound like you will take great care of your son, regardless of what happens between you and H. Again, I'm so sorry for what you're going through.
I really hope you don;t mind me saying, but did you get married because you were pregnant? If you've been married a year you would have been 2 months pregnant?
If you got married because you were pregnant your husband might feel forced into commitment. And he may love you very much, but he might not feel comfortable opening up to you. Or it's possible he wants to open up to you but either doesn't feel supported by you or feels like he has to take care of you and put his own feelings aside. This could lead him to find support elsewhere.
Counseling. Definitely. Not only is he having trouble coping with the situation around, you're having difficulty coping too, and now you have the added complication of trust issues.
