My husband recently moved to China for work for 2 years and 2 weeks into his relocation, he cheated on me. I found out about the affair 2 months later and he was apologetic and confirmed he has ended it. However, he refused to move back to SG as he really likes his job and value the career opportunities. He is though willing to come back every alternate weekend to spend time with the family. Apart from feeling betrayed, I also feel that he doesn't prioritize the family since he chose to stay in China and not come back to work things out with me. Should I cont' to stay in this marriage? Am I wrong to hope/expect him to come back completely in order to save the marriage? *long story which is hard to explain here but I can't move to China... or at least I can't move this current moment...

Being left with the children alone is hard wherein explaining to them that your good husband left for the sake of your family's wellness, is harder and what more to know that he cheated on you (maybe bcos of what - effin' loneliness? Pardon me?) that's hell! I'm sorry but it's like he didn't even know you're way sacrificial than him. So sorry to hear about the evidently bad circumstance and I just want to give you a hug now. But it's time for you to think of yourself now and save it. Save it before the day comes that all you and your husband do is blame each other, or you sulking yourself in tears in one corner regretful that you let him stay and once you see him all you can imagine is the pain. I don't want you to come to that point because you deserve better. All I want to say is it takes a lot of thinking before you make the decision and that decision must be final. No turning back. If he's more a pain than a happiness to the entirety of the family, move on girl.
