My wife and I have always been such a great team. We knew shortly after we met that we wanted to grow old together. Our life was great, each of us with two bio kids, we became a fmaily of six overnight. All was great until I was unfaithfull to her for about 9 mos by going to strip clubs and hooking up with prost. I could not live with myself holding in that kind of secret from the most amazing woman in my life and so i had to Tell her everything. It was a leap of faith on my part, knowing that if we ever wanted to actually have what we had planned together, she had to know. However, my delima is this.....2 1/2 mos after disclosure she informed me that she would be moving to her parents home about 3 hours away with her 2 bio girls (one of which I adopted las Feb.) That part was fine, however I am left here with my bio children and she has yet to make hardly a scratch of an effort to give them any re-assurance whatsoever that she still cares for them. First a month went by without her calling them, and now 2 weeks, yet she SAYS she has been sending them letters and promises them that she will call and never does. Basically, her actions do not match her words. Another factor is the mother in-law, who seemingly sabotaged the situation and convinced my wife to come down and stay with her with the two girls. I learned later that during a period when my wife was staying in the hospital, and mom in law was at our home to help with the kids so that I could work, she (mom in-law) was feeding my wife the line that I was coming home reeking of alcohol. Yet, all i ever did was go to work, stop in to visit my wife at the hospital everyday she was there and come home because i did not want to leave my mother in law burdoned with the responsability of four kids THE WHOLE TIME. Anyhow, I need some advice here. You see, i have to look out for my childrens best intrests first. At which point do I draw the line and make a decision to pick up mysefl and move on? I am doing everything in my power to make sure that this will never happen again to anybody let alone my wife. There are alot of things about me that have to change and I am working diligently on that. I feel horrible having put my family through all of this. Any advice?
