  1. There are so many times when I feel like I can't talk to anyone... I am one of those people that can't reach out because I think I am a bother... which I know is wrong. I am really trying, and this is a baby step for me. There have been so many times that I have wanted to ask questions, or talk, and am extremely grateful for this opportunity. I will appreciate your honesty and point of view with open arms. I have 4 beautiful children under the age of 5, and a husband that I love and adore... and hopefully we are getting back on the right track. I have had some hurtful experiences lately, and have been overwhelmed by Heavenly Father's love for my family. There are so many good and supportive people out there, and look forward to meeting some here, and maybe offering love and support to all of you. I hope I am welcome, but if you tire of me, I can understand and will happily just read everything. Thank you all for your strength and testimonies. Whether you know it or not, you strengthen others and I am blessed by your example.
  2. Last Sunday, my husband confessed to me that he is having an affair and was going to leave me. We talked it out all night and all next day, and he has decided to stay with his family and has realized what he has done. He is repentant, and we have gone to the Bishop to start a repentance process. We have been married in the Temple, so they will need to have a counsel. This whole time I have been very loving and supportive, and have pushed the adversary to keep him at bay so that I may not be filled with the pain and anger of it all. I have been advised by some that I should let myself feel the anger and pain to get it out of me, but I feel that is exactly what the adversary wants... then he knows he has my attention and can present even more anger and negativity to my mind. Are my friends right, and I need to vent anger for mental health? Or do I keep it as far away from me as possible as to not incite the powers of Satan? Am I looking at this wrong? Believe me, the thoughts creep in, but I hear Primary hymns being sung in my head, and it helps tremendously. I was told this is a grieving process by my Bishop. But going through that process may end up destroying me, and I feel my main purpose at this point is to be full of love and support for my husband and children. Are there any thoughts on this? Thanks so much in advance, as this is all very new to me... obviously...
