**Update**

MrsMac2be, 3 October, 2011 at 11:17 Posted on Planning 0 24

Morning Folks.

Well, we had a good weekend, talked heaps..

We/I have decided to give him another chance, we are still going to go for counselling but everyone makes mistakes (and boy howdy this was a MISTAKE) but I truly believe he is remorseful and want to give him and us another chance at building a stronger, new relationship.

My Mum is all behind us, however, my sister has decided to "disown" me which is her prerogative and I respect her wishes.

He, in a matter of days, has become so much more hands on in our relationship, which is great.

We havent postponed or cancelled the wedding, the plans are still ongoing (this may not to be everyones views and I totally respect that). Indeed, the wedding invites were delivered this morning, bittersweet moment but they are totally gorgeous.

I/we would like to thank you all for your support.

KBS xx

    Glad things are looking up for you hun!

    Everyone will have their own views and advice, but all I can say is what I have said before and that is for you to DO WHATS RIGHT FOR YOU!

    Only you know how you feel and no-one can change that. It's nice your mom is supporting you and I wouldnt worry too much about your sis, i'm sure when she realises your happy she will come round, She is no doubt being protective of you but she also needs to realise that you would be happiest with her support, but you will do it without it too!

    Sounds to me like your OH has realised what he has done, my only comment would be to make sure he knows that you have taken whats happend as the exception rather than the rule. As long as he sticks to that you'll be fine!

    I hope things continue to work out and just remember if your feeling insecure at any point, talk it out! were always here as a sounding board! xx

    Now.... give us a flash of your invites! xx

    It sounds like you have given this some real consideration. Your decision may not be to everyone's taste, but you have to do what's right for you. Hopefully your sister will come round soon, and it's great that the rest of the people around you are being supportive. I hope everything works out for you both, and that you know that us Hitched ladies are always here for you, x

    Good to hear your update is positive and you are both wanting to work through this difficult episode in your relationship. As many of us said you will have support from us no matter what your decision is. Your sister is obviously worried about you being hurt and is probably angry at OH so is expressing herself in this way. I hope she comes round in due course and in time for the wedding, glad to hear your mum is behind you x

    Hiya!!

    Glad you're feeling positive and things sound more steady. Smiley smile

    Only you and H2B know how you feel and it is really no-one elses business. He has a lot of making up to do so take it easy and KEEP TALKING!! I honestly believe a relationship can survive an affair as long as both parties are 100% honest and communicate.

    Either way everything will work out for the best that much I do know.

    xxxx

    I think it's hard to understand how someone can forgive behaviour like that. Your sister loves you and will have been hurt indirectly by your OH's actions.

    Ultimately it's your happiness that is important, and I hope he does keep this attentiveness long term; after all, it has only been a week since it has happened.

    I'd personally still hold back on the WP, for as much as WP is exciting, it is a huge commitment and you want to be sure that you both want it. After all, you've been burnt before. As long as you're happy, then that's all that matters

    For what its worth, I think you have taken the tougher option and applaud you for it.

    If my OH cheated, I would be devastated, and the easiest thing to do would be to walk away call him all the names under the sun, but I love him with all my heart and would like to thin I would have the strength to work through it.

    Keep talking, be open and honest - cry if you need to, shout if you need to, dont think you have to hide any feelings for his sake.

    Good luck, and enjoy the rest of your planning.

    xxxxx

    Thanks for the update. Have been thinking about you and how you were getting on. And as others have said, don't worry about your sister. She'll come round. I've been in her position, and honestly she's just trying to protect you, and I'm sure if it was the other way round (before being in that position) you'd have want to rip the balls from anyone who could hurt her!

    Little story about me and my twin sister. Her OH did the dirty on her. I HATED him for it. I literally wanted to kill him. She decided to stay with him, and I told her she'd made a mistake, called him all the names under the sun, etc etc.
    This happened not long before christmas, and he'd already arranged to come for the day. Cue me refusing to spend the day at home with "that C Word". Anyway, she talked me round and we all spent the day together (we even watched Eastenders, when it all came out that Stacey and Max had been having an affair - you can imagine how awkward THAT was!).
    A few years later, and they've got 2 beautiful babies together, they're engaged and although I still think he's a bit of a kn0b at times, he makes her happy and without him I wouldn't have my 2 gorgeous nephews who I adore!

    Anyway, sometimes it does work out!

    Hi KBS,

    glad that you have made a decision that you feel is right for you,it must have been a very difficult decision.

    Hope your OH understands what he has put you through and that with counselling you can come through this stronger than before

    Good Luck KBS, hopefully this is the wake up call he needed and he will be the best husband you could ask for.

    I know personally I'd never be able to forgive, so good for you for being that strong ❤️

    I just wanted to say that I really hope it works out for you. I am not sure what decision I would have made in your position, perhaps not the same as you but I truly hope it works out for you both.

    Ditto to what everyone else has said, good luck with counselling. I would also echo what nurse said, maybe take a few baby steps to see how things progress before continuing any further wedding plans... i imagine it has been a total bombshell to you so you may still be yet to go through a range of emotions, one of which could well be wishing you had a little more time to work through it before committing fully in that way. It is a shame your sister doesn't feel she can support you, but I am glad you have your mum behind you, and a great step taken in arranging therapy sessions.
