My husband had my cat put down to punish me for going away on a girlie break. I then had revenge s*x with a young guy I met and it’s turned into a passionate affair.
I am 31 and my husband is 33. We’ve been together since we had our first child when I was 17. We have three kids now aged 14, 12 and nine, but my husband works long hours, even at the weekends.
He says he is providing for his family and there’s nothing wrong with that. He started drinking heavily and we were just co-existing. He is insanely jealous over social media.
He accuses me of sleeping around. Sometimes he says these things in front of our kids. One of my close friends asked me to go with her on a week’s holiday in Spain.
On my second day our eldest texted me that my husband had had my cat put down. He told the vet it had scratched a friend of our youngest and nearly cost him his sight. He did it to hurt me because I’d gone away.
Can I fall back in love with my husband or do I give new love a chance? I got drunk that night and met a guy at our hotel. One thing led to another and we had s*x.
I wanted to hurt my husband like he’d hurt me. This guy was only 23. I met up with him again the next night. We spent the evening kissing and dancing.
I returned home thinking I wouldn’t hear from him again but he bombarded me with texts. Things were awful at home but I felt I owed it to my kids to stay. I managed to meet up with this guy again — he lives 45 minutes away.
He wanted me to leave my husband but I told him I couldn’t. My husband got hold of my phone and read all the messages. I thought he’d be angry but he cried and cried.
I decided I owed him another chance so I’ve blocked contact with this other guy.
Can I fall back in love with my husband or do I give new love a chance?
I’m so torn.
