Divorce Support Forums: Stupid me! Somebody please talk to me!

Dannor,
So sorry this has happened to you. I'm sure everyone here would tell you people make mistakes. SO many of us are heartbroken because someone hurt us and walked out on us and never looked back. And here you are, so in grief over the mistake you've made. I, for one, would have given my husband another chance if he'd asked for one. I do believe people have to be given another chance. So, is it possible your wife is that kind of a person too? You're saying you lost everything. Are you still trying to reach out to her for forgiveness?
Sometimes it has to take time and never-ceasing effort to earn that forgiveness.
You're also saying you lacked affection from her. Knowing what the roots of the problem are is a good start for counseling, or establishing some connection, the beginnings of mutual understanding.
I can't believe that after 24 years of being together, it would have to end at something so stupid and unnecessary as this. I hope your wife sees that too. How long has it been since this happened? Is it possible she's too angry right now and needs time alone to assess everything with a cooler head?
