Married, new child, but infidelity issue leading to possible divorce, help!

Q: I have been married to my husband for nearly 3 years. We have a 2 yo and I have basically felt unheard, unseen and unloved for a long time now. One year ago I made a big mistake and allowed a one time infidelity issue happen. It comes out to my husband a week ago and I owned up to it and obviously have changed everything since the affair. Within a week he has made the decision he wants a divorce and that’s that. I want my marriage and have prayed constantly. The overwhelming feelings of guilt and of anger of allowing things and not ever being validated are eating me alive.  Where do I go from here, I want to heal and change but I want my family also. Has anyone else been through something like this? A: Im glad you reached out even though it was after the issue got exposed. You should've voiced those feelings to him long ago and sought marriage help, incl pastoral counsel. You need to do damage control immediately cuz you can never remarry again if he leaves you. Do what it takes...
