6 years in and cheating already, should I run?
I’m less than a week out from learning of the cheating. He came clean on his own, he committed financial and emotional infidelity. Says he has a porn addiction that started when he was in his teens, I do believe him. Looking at therapists for individual therapy for the two of us as well as couples.
Here’s where I’m at. We’ve been together for 6 years, married for 3. I’m young, early 30s. Why should I spend the next 2-5 years rebuilding trust when I can move on? No kids, pets but they can be split appropriately, the house is in both of our names and our finances are intermingled - that’s the most “difficult” part. Why do I need to suffer through recovery when I would be just fine on my own?
Given my situation, would you stay? I have a good job, I am stable in my own life, why should I deal with this?
Thanks for any insight you have to give. I’m at a total loss.
