I stayed with my husband after he cheated – but l found new texts to his ex-lover

DEAR DEIDRE: AFTER my husband had an affair with a younger woman, I took him back.

I’m 52, he is 55 and we’ve been married for 33 years.

My husband used to work further up the country, so he was often away for long periods.

During this time he had a five-year affair with a woman who is ten years younger than him.

When I found out, he promised he would end their relationship.
I stupidly believed him.

Now I’ve found new texts between them both. He has told her he misses her and she has said the same.

I confronted him but he lied, saying they were just talking and he wants me.

Should I give him another chance or end our relationship?

DEIDRE SAYS: You do deserve better treatment than this.

I would be wary about taking him back.

Unless he seeks professional help, he will not change and you will risk being hurt again.

My support pack Cheating – Can You Get Over It? will help you.
