Crossroads

My husband has cheated on me for the umpteenth time.  I found out by accident, nonetheless as devastating as finding out any way.  I'm lost, confused and so deeply disappointed.  Where do I go, what happens now?  I promised myself I'd walk away if I ever caught him cheating again.

Yet I am so shocked by what he's done, I am frozen in place.  I can't make heads nor tails of why he'd risk everything he claims to hold dear to fulfill this secretive need?  I just can't understand it.

I'm not perfect but nor am I unattractive.  I've asked over and over what's wrong with me, only to get the same answer.  Nothing.  Then why?  I'm faithful in spite of feeling neglected a lot of the time.  I'm stressed.  I worry and I want to feel good about myself.  But I do not venture out of my vows to find and receive what's missing.

My ship is drifting and I have no idea where I am headed.
