Cheating Husband who makes less money than me

Just found out my husband of 8 years has been cheating on me. I'm devastated but more concerned for the kids - they are 3 and 5, and from every study I have read, divorce is one of the worst things that can happen to a child. I can't bear to do this to them but at the same time, I'm not sure I can ever forgive my husband. I am not financially dependent on him (I actually make more money than him). He is still a great father...I really don't know what to do. Please help.

If he deserves a second chance then why not let him repent. Go for counseling, work out the differences and look for the feelings you both once had for each other. Sometimes I think marriages break down and it takes both hands to clap. If one made a mistake, it's for the other to correct it. Given time and faith, if it still doesn't work out, then maybe separation is better. As long as the same love, care and concern are given to kids, teach and explain to them why daddy and mummy don't live together, don't let hatred live in them.
