Unhappy I'm so sad

Can I get your opinion? I feel betrayed by my husband. I feel like he cheated on me. My neighbor made advances toward him and he felt flattered. They didn't have sex, just kissed and touched a little. For now I told him to get out for a few days. Did I do the right thing? Our daughter spent the night over there and when he went over there the next morning to pick her up is when it happened. I was sleeping. Somebody help me please.

Oh Jodi, I am so sorry. {{{HUGS}}}

I think you did the right thing by distancing yourself a bit. That's what I would have done too.

Yes, he told me. I don't know why it happened or even how. I went over and talked to her and told her that she needs to stay away from my husband. My husband is at work and I really hope he doesn't come home tonight. I have somewhere I can go if I need to. Thanks for the kind words. I appreciate it.

Jodi, big time hugs to you. You did the right thing. This is tough stuff for sure.When you feel he is sincere in owning up to what he has done maybe talking to a professional can help you guys work through this. I wish you all the very best.

I have read this post many times over the days.

I do feel really bad for you and I am thinking of you A LOT.

I just really don't know the 'right' thing to say - I have only just split up with my 3rd husband (he moved out approx. 4 months ago, but I honestly thought we were going to work it out - until this week and especially YESTERDAY!) So my own emotions are running wild and I keep on and on reading your post and wanting to say something of significance but I just can't think of anything.

I'm so sorry
