Won't go into the sorrid details but, found out that my WH has NEVER stopped his A. And now he is telling her he loves her and wants to have a family with her.
I am so sick to my stomach. We were making some progress. Had some setbacks. I'm not completely surprised by this.
Today, I am filing for divorce. It is a sad day for me but, i refuse to let myself be disrespected another second.

FF, I am so sorry you are dealing with this. Stay strong! I had many other life tribulations, on top of the A...losing family, and furbabies (to me those are my babies), but I still kept my head held high. Good luck and stay strong!!!!

I filed the paperwork with the court. Now, he will have to be served. We still live in the same house.
Tonight, i am going to tell him i would like him to move out. Also, discuss finances and child custody arrangements. Our son is 15, the other is 21 and is in college.
I don't anticipate this going well at all.

Let his woman-child have him - dump his shit on her doorstep.
FTG.
This just breaks my heart - so many years and such a wonderful gift you gave to him -
You're right - enough is enough. We're here for you...please keep us posted.
When you say it will not go well, do you fear you will be harmed? Please have someone with you if that's the case.

Stay strong and know that you are doing the right thing for you and your family.
This is the consequence of your husband's horrid choices.
You have given him multiple opportunities to be an honorable man and father and he has chosen to disregard those chances.
This now stops because you says it stops. Done. He is no longer worth your attempts to reconcile or put up with his lies and the OW's psychotic behavior.
Stick to your guns and know that we are all here rooting for you.

I don't fear for my safety. I think he is going to yell and fuss. There is nothing he can say at this point.
He has lied so much to me, i wouldn't believe anything he said anyways.

Strength to you.
It's so pathetic when these 40+ y.o. men actually believe that the 20- something y.o. age group are truly into them and will remain faithful. Ha!

I'm so sorry.
It's never completely wasted effort - you've learned that you can overcome something horrendous like this. Look, you've already filed and moved on to the next step. It's not going to be easy, but you sound so strong.
Sending big hugs and support.

I am in your situation, although a few weeks further in.

Stay busy, take care of you and your kids.
