crazedteacher Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 I sit here reading all these posts wondering does time heal all wounds. I found out last February that my husband was cheating because I found pics that he and his mistress were sending each other. I asked him several times because of suspicions and he continued to lie to me. He apologized and we went to counseling (waste of time)! I stayed because I have a 4 year old that adores us both. But the problem is not only him but his snotty 13 year old daughter that lives with us who is constantly causing us to fight. I stay stressed out and we fight about her all the time. I sometimes wish I would have run when I had the chance. I have given up on ever being in love again. I can't remember the last time I was really happy and felt truly wanted.........!

Time does not heal wounds like this, but courage does.
Author crazedteacher Posted October 3, 2010 Author Posted October 3, 2010 Thanks! Courage, stupidy and prayer! I will hang on to every thread that I have. I would walk through fire for my little girl. Her happiness is so much more important than mine.
painfullyobvious Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 I do not think you ever completely heal but when you find a person who loves and respects us, the wounds are certainly overlooked in time. I was cheated on fifteen years ago and from time to time I still think about my ex-girlfriend when personal memories come up. I think of her and I think of what she did. I know I am in a better place now. You will get there too. Goodluck and I am sorry you have to experience this.

Time does NOT HEAL all wounds. It is WHAT YOU CHOOSE to do with that time that matters the most. Do you know why he had the affair? Can you afford another counselor? Do you trust him and do the two of you really want to re-commit to the marriage? Was he remorseful for his actions? What plans are in place to deal with a pre-teen daughter? (Very, very difficult, I know.) Because, IMHO, you sound miserable. Why stay in a loveless marriage?
