So, I don't know if he has made any of these meetings happen, but the fact that he is soliciting and looking for local people has me worried that he will escalate and begin to actually meet these people. He even gave one his cell phone number.

I had decided I was going to stay with him because we have kids, but I don't know if I can handle this. I don't even know how to approach him about this. I emailed my therapist telling him about this and I have requested that he call me on my cell tomorrow.

. I am afraid I would end up homeless if we divorced, but I don't know if I can live with this.

I know it is probably an addiction, and that he probably needs my support but I don't know if I can handle supporting someone who basically ignores me sexually and wants to go out and have sex with others (not just regular sex, he wants kinky things according to the emails).

I just don't know what to do, what to think...I am shattered by this.
Perhaps, your I don't Knows are really I do know what I want and need to do, but are too afraid, to not live the life that you are leading?

Talking about supporting an addiction, is to me, excuse making for someone who isn't giving you the respect that you deserve. If this, were your daughter or sister, or what if it was your own mom, what advice would you give?

Shattering sanity and self esteem, is your happiness and subsequent sanity worth this sacrifice?
