I thought so too. It seems fairly clear to me. |

I'm trying to address that.
He wanted to leave me because he thinks / thought he doesn't deserve me, because he broke one of our marriage vows.
Not because he doesn't love me.
Oh ok I'm just thrown off because the typical thing men do is apologize and fight to stay not leave. |

I need to know (preferably from a man) if you think he's likely to do it again.
He says he loves me and it was an accident. And That he'll never get that drunk again.
I need an unbiased view.
My heart says stay with him, But My head is confused.
for the fact that he opened up to u before u find out and is very sorry about it is an indication that he will NOT DO IT AGAIN. he will definitely take correction. pls dear give him a second chance as your post shows that u really luv him. remember he is still your husband |

Then it puts things in a whole different perspective. Before, you made it seem like he cheated on you and he wants to leave you as fast as possible!

@ Ben20001. You seem to be the main guy replying on here. I think I'm going to go with my heart, I'm sure my head will follow (given a bit more time  ) I'm going to continue as if nothing has happened between us, and never mention it to him again - thats the only way to truly forgive & forget this. And put my trust back into him again. Maybe I'll put more effort into going out clubbing with him  |

He's 36, you should let him know that he's too old be going to such clubs and definitely too old and not in the position to be hooking up with ladies. He is putting you at serious risk with the STDs he gets from those women.

Maybe I'll put more effort into going out clubbing with him yes, do that. he could also put a little more effort into finding other ways of having fun that wont involve him getting drunk and picking up STDs? I dont see why you have to babysit a grown man all the time as if you're his mother? |

Yes please do if you want to keep your marriage. go clubbing with your hubby. you don't even want strange female dancing with him do you? follow your heart  |

Erm . . . I suggest banning him from going to clubs. Go to something more age appropriate like cocktail parties or lounge parties.

banning?  then he's no longer the man of the house! |

I can't ban him.
Two Reasons - 1) He's not a child. You don't have to go clubbing to cheat! And 2) It would show him I don't trust him.
I need to have trust in my marriage. It's been broken down, But with time it should be repaired.

Sometimes you just need to show him that he's stepped out of line. You just can't let this pass and start going with him to clubs like nothing happened. That's stupidity not trust. |

give him a second chance again and again and again. only then will u appreciate the fact that its better to live wit one who cheats and ask for forgiveness than one who does and boast about his ability to lay.

Does your advice also apply to men? How many men would stay with thier woman if she brought an STD home? Should men also forgive thier wives if they cheat on them because the next wife might do the same? You make it sound like some right that men have to cheat on thier wives by saying that she would be marrying over and over again if she did not forgive him cheating. BULLSHIT!!!!!!! |

I have spent all morning examining my marriage license. I used a magnifying glass, spy gear glasses, held it up to light, put in the dark to look for glow in the dark letters and no matter what I have done I still can’t find any clause on there that says he has the right to cheat on me. So I thought ok this right they have to cheat must not be from man but from God and I spent the rest of the afternoon combing the bible even trying to read between the lines and I still cant find this ultimate right they have to step outside their marriage. So if it is not from God and not from Man where the hell do they get the idea that it is just a man thing to cheat? Men like him piss me off. Double standard for sure. |

In late December he told me he wanted to leave me, as he had cheated on me & Didn't deserve me.
I know he loves me, as he's constantly saying things about me / to me.
I love him too, But I feel hurt.
He say's with another woman when he was drunk.
And We've had tests and both been treated for Clamydia.
I now get worried when he goes out, that he might get too drunk again.
hmmm. U see why men will always call women STUPID Not only you give love a bad name but you also give girls a bad name  |

Can you vouch for him that if he was not mandated to tell all his sleeping partners that he had STD, he would have confessed to you? Yes I know you have been asked before, but how confident are you he has never been drunk before and sleepwalked his way into this woman's bed before, hence his telling you he feels he should leave  From the little I know, if someone cheats, they will try pleading with your good nature to forgive them, not tell you they should leave I don't wanna put thoughts into your head, but you need to think these through thoroughly before you give him the second chance. |

hmmm. U see why men will always call women STUPID Not only you give love a bad name but you also give girls a bad name I don't think I've given love a bad name, nor am I stupid. I'm tying to give Marriage a good name. By not falling (& Divorcing) at the first problem we have. My feelings are that I'd rather give it a second try and if it happens again, at least I'd know that I'd given my best to my marriage. After all isn't marriage something to work at, and not divorce at the slightest problem Too many people divorce these days, and I'd rather not be one of them. He seems to be genuinely sincere in his apology. I've been with him for 6 years, never argued of fought before. Perhaps I should allow him this one mishap Isn't everyone entitled to one mistake ? |

If every woman thinks like u marriages would be saved from divorce.
Give him a second chance. And always take control of his strenght by beating down his thing, that way he wont have the strength to wine another woman outside. Talk to him about reducing his drinking habit center it on his health! that should help.
GOODLUCK!!!

Tom drunk but Tom's no fool. My mom divorced 2ice (bad choices in men except my father) and her third marriage is looking shaky right now. She doesn’t like divorce because it’s painful for all of us but at the same time she is not going to let anyone take advantage of her. . .especially if she can take care of herself. The choice is yours? However, with all the STDs going around, please be careful Much love and best of luck I don't think I've given love a bad name, nor am I stupid.
