What was there to see? A young woman enjoying some time off before going on to face a packed schedule of work? SMH...

Dear Myne - Should I get even on my Cheating Husband?

Posted in: , , , ,

I discovered a few months back that my husband slept with another lady. This was less than 2mths after our second child, and 2 months to our fourth year wedding anniversary. To say that I was deeply hurt is putting it mildly.... I wept like never before and some of my thoughts included divorce and even suicide.
