Today, I confronted Malcolm. I couldn’t let this fester, mainly because I was due in five weeks. Before bringing my baby into this mess, I needed to know how to continue forward.
Malcolm reluctantly admitted to his affair and the child he had fathered, and our marriage shattered into a million irreparable pieces.
Now, I’m eating chocolate and researching divorce lawyers.
This isn’t what I envisioned — for my children to grow up in a world where their parents weren’t together. But I couldn’t live with that betrayal.
I couldn’t live with a man who almost missed our daughter’s birth because he was holed up with another woman. Let alone a man who fathered a child with another woman.
My children, innocent in all of this, now have a half-sibling from their father’s affair. It’s a painful reality, but I’m determined to move forward and create a loving home for them.
What would you do in this situation?
