I stumbled across this message board, and as I feel as though I have no where else to turn to so I will seek your help. My husband and I have been married for 4 years. Things were rocky financially up until about 9 months ago. Since then things have really turned around - we bought our first house, he got a great job - I thought everything was going great. Last week we set up the internet at the house. The next day I discovered that he had paid to post an ad online in one of those sex wanted sites. I confronted him about it and he apologized - said he was just "messing around" and got pulled in. Thing is - I found his post. It was to the effect that he was looking for a local sex partner, no commitment, no head games.

I let it slide after the apology until the weekend when we had time to really sit down and talk. When I confronted him again he said that he felt as though I was not attracted to him, as out sex life had been lacking. True I admitted, but I was not enjoing it either. After about 4 hours of talking we talked it out and decided to try to spice up things in the bedroom. We had 4 really great days together. He really opened up, talked about sex (he had always been quite shy about it). I thought we had worked it through. He told me over and over that he was sorry to have caused me so much pain, that he loved me, etc. I believed him.

Today I found another note to a woman in a different (free) sex site. Saying that he was new at this but was looking to have some fun - again no head games no commitment.

I am just sick. I feel like an idiot. I really don't think that he has physically cheated on me, but I feel utterly betrayed and humiliated. Anyone have any insight into the make psychi or advice? I will probably call a counselor tomorrow, but for tonight I am beside myself with sadness.

I can't put myself in his postion at all.....but I guess that it's like sleeping with a prostitute (no committment).

However it's damaged you so he really needs to pay attention and admit it's wrong. He possibly doesn't see much harm so it will be hard for him to change.

Sorry but I can't offer any words that will make you see it from his side as it's totally alien to me. I don't believe he's cheating but also I don't think he's being at all fair.
