Cheating Husband who makes less money than me

Just found out my husband of 8 years has been cheating on me. I'm devastated but more concerned for the kids - they are 3 and 5, and from every study I have read, divorce is one of the worst things that can happen to a child. I can't bear to do this to them but at the same time, I'm not sure I can ever forgive my husband. I am not financially dependent on him (I actually make more money than him). He is still a great father...I really don't know what to do. Please help.

Sorry to hear that. It really depends whether you are willing to give him a second chance and if you husband will change for the better, at least for his children. For me I will not forgive and will choose to leave. He still can take on his role as father to the kids even if we are not together. I know of friends who stayed on despite the husband cheating for the sake of her children but they do not communicate and ignoring each other totally which I don't find that it's healthy and may also have the same bad impact to the children. I do hope the better for you mummy.
