A male age 41-50, *monday writes:

Because of a short term affair my wife had, we have been split up for about 6 months now.. I have been involved with someone who I care dearly about but I also have two children who mean more to me than anything.. I am not misserable when I am with my wife but yet I am not happy either. I have been going back and forth on whether to get back together or not. We just took a trip together and it was a nightmare. I don't know what to do.. I feel like I am neglecting my kids but it makes me sick to be with her. Should I give it another try or not?

A female reader, anonymous, writes (28 December 2006):

I wish I had the answer. I too am in a similar situation. My husband may have had an affair. I don't know for sure, but I don't trust him or have any respect for him. His obsession with porn and his constant lies about it over the years has taken it's toll. We have four children and I want so much to leave this relationship. I hope with some help from a counselor I can make that decision. Do we really want our children to grow up in loveless environment, or would he be better to see them less but the time be more fullfilling for us and the kids. No one wins if everyone is miserable.
