My husband of 25 years started working away. He got a great job, a new lifestyle and things seemed okay. Over the time he came home less and less. I was at home looking after his elderly parents and the grandchildren. He was working long days and there didn't seem any point in relocating plus he wasn't encouraging that. Fast forward 3 years and he starts getting nasty and always fights when he comes home. The only time he smiled was driving away. Things got worse and I started to find evidence of an affair. He cut me off financially and told others we had separated. I decided to fight for my marriage and for the past 2 years I have hung on. I drive 5 hours to see him, I have kept in contact and stayed "up beat" even though he has been maintaining a relationship with another woman. It has been heart breaking. I have seen pics on the internet of them !! However, I have stayed determined and a couple of weeks ago I noticed a change. He started telephoning me. I thought maybe the girlfriend is gone.. and she is. He told me it's over and she has someone else. Not sure if I really believe him but something has changed. Now I need to stay focused and get my husband back even though I am so hurt, angry and betrayed. I want my marriage to work so please I need some positive success stories. I have been through hell the last few years and I deserve this to work. Advice please.. P.s. I did think of leaving but I love him..
