Get over it. Move on. Your happiness and sanity are more valuable than a husband who cheats or a so-called girlfriend who took part in that. Your opinions?

i have been reading a lot about affairs. just wanted to get in my two-cents. my husband left me over 20 years ago - we had been married 14 years at the time and did not want children. my girlfriend was having an affair with him the last year or so we were together. they are still together, but not married. i have since had a child on my own, with the father, or course, denying the child. i can live with that - it's a long story in itself. i am still single, and to tell the truth, pretty much want to stay that way. those things have made me bitter and jaded in the past, but life goes on. it's hard when the rug goes out under your feet, shocked at what has happened. i have changed from the needy and clingy wife/woman i used to be. i do get lonely at times, but that always reminds me of how hurt i used to be - which makes me happier. get over it. move on. it's not worth it. your happiness and sanity are more valuable than a husband or a so-called girlfriend. like they say, if he did it to me, he'll do it to her. good luck. i have a better life and better friends now.
