Confused... Husband Cheated Again

I am confused & really dont know what to do.  My husband a foreigner,
he is 58 and Im 38.  We have been married for about 4 yrs (his second
marriage), with one child & now living in Malaysia.  In yr 2005, I
found out that my husband had an affair with a lady in Jakarta. He met
this lady, Mrs U, thru bus meetings & started exchanging loving
emails, long phone calls, sms plus a trip with her in a hotel which I
found out only after.  We had quarel & I called Mrs U telling her that
Im his wife.  We worked things out (so I thought) & he promised not to
repeat. My daughter loves to meddle with his lap top & accidently I
saw his email to her, saying that I am only a companion!!! & how much
he misses her & want to be with her.  Not only that, at the same time
I saw his loving emai to another girl in Shanghai!! on their romantic
moment in the country side last year.  I didnt bring this up to him,
coz I do not want a fight & hoping that he will change.  Early this
year 2007, I received a phone call from a lady, wanted to find out if
I am really his wife.  She sent me an email, telling about their
affair.

He is a charmer with every women.  But serious at home.  He doesnt
show his affection to me after we got married.  Im abt 20 yrs younger
than him & I was an athlete (marathon runner) before, quit my job for
our family.  I am affectionate, a very jovial person & I love to spoil
my husband, which he doesn't know how to return.

I am confused & hurt, esp if I look at my daughter's eye, how he has
betrayed us.  Questions keep bugging me, why did he lie? Or shall I
just end this marriage & continue with my life.  A fren told me A
Cheater will always be a Cheater, that he will cheat again..

Because he knew you wouldn't be pleased if he told the truth.

Stay married to him, but don't give him any more sex.  He's obviously
getting it elsewhere anyway.

>A fren told me A Cheater will always be a Cheater, that he will cheat again..

One good cheat deserves another.  Start having your own affairs.

What an assanine response LK.  Stay married to that betrayer and that
teaches her daughter what?  Don't give him more sex and that's supposed to
fill her need for affection and intimacy how?  Start having your own
affairs?  You're one sick dude.

---------------------------
Pops, as you can see from the above, noor was the
original  poster (OP), and Larry was the second, yet
the text of Larry's post was below that of  noor's, thus
the phrase -- bottom posting.  To be consistent and to
comport with proper nettiquette, your text should also
bottom post... that is place your text below Larry's.

Top posting (placing text above the quoted post(s) is
certainly allowed, but its frowned upon when you are
responding to bottom-posted text.  IOW, it helps us
comprehension-challenged readers not to have to read
the series as #3, #1, #2, and try to place it in context.
... Just my 2 cents.  =R=

Maybe he lied because he's good at it and thought you would
not catch him a 2nd time, but "why" doesn't really matter.
What matters is that now you know the truth.  Your friend is
correct. Can a leopard change his spots?

He cheated on you once, and you let it go; now he's cheating
again.  If you let it go again, then you will have made a choice
to live with being one of his harem.  I thnk that the expression,
"Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me,"
applies here. =R=

The thing is would there be any chance that he will ever change?  He
is 58.

He told me before we got maried, that his first wife had affairs (3x)
& she walked out from their marriage.

I love him (so I think) & hating him at the same time.  I came from a
good family background, marriage is a committment.

Your friend said, no, and I said, "Your friend is correct."
Ask the question again, ask it as many times as you like, but
the answer will still be no.  He has shown by his own conduct
that he has no intention of changing.  Well, there is a chance...

There is a chance that he could suffer a stroke and be left a
mental vegetable. There is a chance that he could be hit by a
bus and be left paralyzed from the neck down.  Take those
chances, continue to disbelieve us, as it seems prefer... But
you are the one who is being played for a fool and you are
the one who will have to live with your decision to let that be.

Set an example for your daughter, that it's not necessary to accept
unacceptable behavior in a spouse.  Otherwise she may one day experience the
same situation you are going through.

What are you confused about?  Your options are
to stay or leave.  If you stay, things will
remain the same and he will not change.  You
have already stayed once and things have not
changed, correct?  So, what are you confused
about?

I have a little daughter.  She is only 2 yrs +.  My concern is only
her.

I'm sorry. You had my sympathy until you stated your only concern is
for your daughter.
Staying in a marriage with a man that treat you with MUCH disrespect
because its best for your
daughter is crap.
The best thing for your daughter is YOUR good mental health and your
happiness.
For your daughter, having a unhappy mother that hates her life sucks!
Dump the a.shole and figure out what is best for YOU. Take care of
yourself and your daughter needs will fall in line also.

There are plenty of kids who grow up in single-parent
homes.  Sure, its not easy and there will be issues, but
its better that her mother have some self-respect, than
none.  How will you teach her about self-respect?

Quit grasping at straws and get some counselling to
find out why you are willing to remain part of his harem.
And guess what that means:  Unless he uses condoms
/all/ the time with his women and with you, you are also
sleeping with every whore that he does... What will you
tell you daughter about why mommy has an STD?  =R=

Although it's not always true that a cheater will always be a cheater,
it's a pretty good bet.  And in this case, the guy hasn't just cheated
once because he got caught off guard.  As bad and despicable as that
is, this guy cheats as a matter of course.  It's not what he's done,
or even what he does.  It's who he is.

Dump the loser.
