Long term affair : Relationship Forum

Even within the context of a disorder, a person has to take responsibility for their own actions, and it sounds as if your wife's affairs have taken their toll upon you.

Please don't let a misplaced sense of duty or guilt prevent you from looking at your own feelings and your own emotional health, for they are equally valid. Sometimes, when a partner is in the position of being a carer as well as a partner, they can lose sight of their own feelings, their own needs and their own rights within a relationship. Every person has a right to feel secure, and to be treated with empathy and respect.

It sounds as if you have done all that you can to make the marriage work, and that your needs have not been taken account of here. There is only so much that a person can do. It takes TWO people to make a relationship or a marriage work, and to hide behind a disorder and use it as an excuse for behaviour that causes distress is really unacceptable.

You have a right to be happy and a right to be in a relationship that brings you rewards.
