A female United Kingdom age 36-40, *atie85 writes:

I am 28 next month, my husband is 30, we've been together 13 years, we have 2 children and he has constanly cheated on me!, all of them much younger, mostly teenagers!, I have gone through his phone and emails and facebook and found out there's more on the go then I first thought and even found out his on a dating site, when I confront him he just gets very angry and says its my fault for snooping when I ask why he always says he doesn't know why!, this is mental torture!, Even some he has kissed, done sexual things with infront of me and there boyfriends, he always played mind games with me saying I'm seeing things, I'm paranoid etc, when his phone rings I'm hearing things then months later he'll say yeah he did have a call!, this has made me feel ugly, old, fat, boring, humiliated, depressed, lonely, useless, I love him so much though I want to stay with him and our 2 children. I think he just needs help, he clearly has a lot of issues with beingable to tell me or show me his feelings, he txts these girls sexy messages he never txts me even hello or how are you never mind sexy messages!, and he says he loves them all the time, I've never told anyone but him I love him, he refuses to go to counselling with me, his mum just says well his just like his dad I know what your going through he would never talk and got angry and it frustrates you so much that's why I'm glad his left me for his much younger secret lover!, he says he won't ever do it again but in 13 yrs I struggle to remember a year that he hasn't cheated, I don't think he can make me feel loved or wanted I just keep clinging onto hope that one day he'll surprise me and say let's try for a baby or let's give you the wedding you deserve the dress you always wanted (we got married at gretna on the cheap no guests, no reception, no dress), I know I need to be more positive I have to be strong but its hard!, has anyone been through this?

You are not old, by any stretch of the imagination. But you are partly to blame for allowing this behavior to go on unchecked, unchallenged. Get therapy and demand he changes, or leave him. Otherwise, you'll be stuck feeling this way.

Sageoldguy1465 agony auntThe creature that you described in your submittal is no man.... it is a DOG!!! Unless you are content to spend time with a DOG (and not a very nice dog, at that.....), then you need to put on your "big girl" panties, puff out your chest ans say: "No woman on Earth should endure the nightmare that I have endured in my time with (his name here)..... so, AS OF TODAY I am writing that creature out of my life, and going on with a NEW LIFE which doesn't include him in any way..."

If you are cowed in to weakness by him (which I suspect has happened, from what you write)... then seek out help in the form of a friend, relative, colleague, or clergyman, and let them help guide you through your exodus from your current situation to your NEW situation...

Good luck.... and STAY STRONG.... We're (the Aunts and Uncles) with you...

AuntyEm agony auntI think you are confusing love with need.

I also want to know what it is about him that you love because the picture you have painted of him is of a cold uncaring serial cheat with a proclivity for young girls who shows you absolutely no respect...

When you were a young girl, was this the kind of man you wanted to marry?

Are you sure that it's love? or is it just the fact that he's the father of your kids and you need him to provide for you and the kids so you will put up with any amount of vile crap just so you don't have to go it alone?

Would you let your kids marry someone with the same 'charms'? or do you think the cycle needs to be broken.

Your man is on the shit heap with all the other cheaters liars and kiddy fiddlers...failing to take any responsibility, getting away with it and using controlling and aggressive methods to keep decent wives and partners on the hook whilst they carry out their despicable activities...cozy huh!!!

WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE!!!! ...cos this is YOUR LIFE and you only get ONE!!!! STOP TAKING DISGUSTING SHITTY TREATMENT and thinking it's LOVE...cos it's NOT LOVE...it's CLINGING ON!!!!

CindyCares agony auntNo no no, you don't need to be more positive, you need to be more realistic !. 13 years that he has been cheating on you and perving on teens, and you are still waiting for the big romantic gesture ?

You may love him- but alas he does not love you back, loving is also respecting and all he does is so disrespectful. I agree that he would need help- but you can't help those who refuse to be helped. He does not have a problem with his behaviour, only you do- so obviously you can't fix this together.

I don't think the love you feel for another person should , or even could, totally erase any love you feel for yourself. Love does not justify wearing a sign with " Kick me " over it, and this is what you have been doing, so , with all the symphaty I do feel for your predicament, if you are willing to keep putting up with this kind of S..t indefinitely, then you have a big problem too, not only your husband.

Start counseling by yourself- to see if you can retrieve your self esteem and understand that love can't be toxic, and find the strength to move on.

oldbag agony auntHi

He is a serial cheat and he will NEVER change.

If he wants teenage girls kick him out, divorce him and get your life,self esteem back and he can go rot. Even his mum has told you in her way,what to do.I just hope these girls aren't TOO young.

Your not going to get the dream marriage, the LAST thing you need is another baby.

How can you love such a cruel,lying,cheating lowlife?

Your not ugly,old,boring or useless.He is.Remember that as you throw him out and start your new life.
