He&#8217;s seeing someone else, but he doesn&#8217;t want a divorce and calls now and then. If the two of you are still married, then he is currently doing the cheating, isn&#8217;t he? So he continues to punish you for having done the same thing. These are games, painful games.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a funny thing about waiting around for someone&#8230; when they know you&#8217;re there, they have no incentive to make a decision because no matter how long they keep doing what they&#8217;re doing, you&#8217;ll be waiting for them.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d suggest you take charge of your life, make some decisions and work at making yourself independent and happy. That may mean you&#8217;ll hurt before you feel better, but aren&#8217;t you hurting now?<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s the first day of the rest of your life. How do you want it to begin?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Her husband left after she cheated. Now he&#8217;s living with a girlfriend but calling her.
