Well, this has been a many year's issue with me. My wife and I have been together for 26 years, and during that time, I have betrayed her multiple times, in multiple ways. Sometimes, I didn't think I was doing anything wrong, but I later learned that it was.

We have currently reached the final straw, and like a heel, it has taken me this long to really realize how bad I have been and how much I have hurt her. She has given me 6 months to show some drastic change and improvement, or she is gone.

I recognize my wrong-doings, and I accept the fact that I have caused all of the pain. Just today I found a therapist who does virtual counselling, and next week I have an initial consultation with him. This will be the first time that I have reached out to try therapy. I have to do virtual because I am a contractor that works overseas... which hasnt helped my actions any. I will be done with contracting in 10 months at the latest now, but possibly 6 months.

I was looking for resources today to find something, anything to possibly help me when I came across this site. I dont expect sympathy or anything for my past deeds, but hopefully I can find some advice on how to proceed with my journey of improvement.

Thanks all of you for listening.
