How can I be strong?

[Guest]

Well, I have been with my boyf for over 12 years, when in April he had an affair. This was all building up for a while as I had been greiving having lost a loved one and I had pushed him away. But not that far away!

 

Anyway in spite, I slept with someone else, after promising him that we would be ok. Even when I made this promise I knew that I didn't mean it and I wish we had talked then. The fling I had was awful and it all came out, then he left me, went back to her and moved in with her.

 

Now he comes round everyday all day, but sleeps there! He says he is being honest with me about everything and I feel like he is, I have been with him for 12 years and in that time we always went to each other. He says he wants to be with me, but he can't forgive me for all the deceit and broken promises. I should say he is also suffering from depression, having talked to a phyciatrist, and I have been trying to support him through that too.

 

Today I went to a doctor and he has given me anti-depressants, as I am feeling all over the place. I go from angry to tearful to strong....how can I be strong. I mean I have a full time job and a five year old to look after, I hope the tablets help.

 

We have decided not to see each other until Friday and see how we feel, our relationship has always been intense, all over each other and feeling wonderful. I of course want everything to work out, we both found it hard saying goodbye. Does anyone think there is hope for us?

There is always hope if you Love each other and have Christ in your lives.
