Cheating

Is it possible to come back from cheating? Will our relationship ever be the same or should I just give up now? There was no physical (that I’m aware of) but I’m so tired of feeling like shit and devalued. As much as I love this person how do I look past the infidelities?

it totally depends. you need to know what you need from them to trust them again (even if it's a long list), and they need to be 100% committed to earning that trust back and following your roadmap, recognising it will be a long road. if either of those pieces are missing then no i don't think there's a way back. but if they're both there then there is.

that said the most important thing is that you both want to fix it. if you're too tired and you're done, that's okay too. you don't owe them your effort to fix what they broke if you feel your heart can't take it anymore. i'm so sorry you're going through this. ❤️

Yes it is possible. I know couples who have been able to get past it and still have a good relationship. However your partner has to want it just as bad if not more than you do. You have to be clear with them about what you need from them moving forward. I wouldn’t give up too easily but don’t fool yourself either. I wouldn’t give up too easily but also make sure you’re being honest with yourself through the whole process.

I’ve seen a friends mom manage to stay in her marriage, I wouldn’t dare do it, the reason I have my stepmom is bc she left her cheating ex, the reason I have my amazing husband is bc he left 2 cheating exes, yeah I guess my friend’s mom got to keep her homes, not deal w/divorce or have to work & all that, but she was mean to my friend, it was like that anger had to go somewhere & if she wanted her marriage to work it couldn’t be aimed at her husband, the people in my life have left, forgiving on their way out & moved on with their happy lives not caring that they weren’t right for them, which I feel is healthier for all involved. I know me, I’m Demi, I’d immediately fall out of love once our bond broke & the resentment for them breaking our bond wouldn’t go away until I moved on w/my life, plus I’ve tried making a marriage work w/o having the bond anymore, it’s hard to be w/someone you aren’t attracted to anymore,it was a miserable time of my life,single mom life gave me my sanity back

I think it’s possible if he actually wants to and is willing to make changes. Everything cannot go back to how it was. Things have to change.

I’m a firm believer that people can change if they put the energy into it, have the right resources, and actually want to.

I would suggest going to couples counseling if you want to try to stay. If not, it’s totally okay to end the relationship! Only you know the right choice.

Work support

Hey, I am looking for advice or maybe just a vent.

I have been on maternity leave for 14 months. I had to leave abruptly due to a risk of infection that could have harmed my baby and left a week early. Before I left work, I was working 3 positions due to staff shortages and alot of my main role as manager was pushed to the side as more important roles took priority. Since being away, an incident has happened which has now "raised concerns" about my work and I have been placed under investigation. However, all raised concerns were either work that I could not finish due to staff shortages, actions that were guided by management above me or things that happened 2+ years ago which are untrue/ exaggerated.

Regardless of this, I have been treated unprofessionally. I have had 2 kit days where I was not informed about the incident and i was told 3 weeks before I started work. From there, I was constantly called/ texted about work/ the investigation by my manager. When I explained to her that I would need her to email me, this was not good enough for her- insisting I call her back when my child was awake from his nap. I was told it was an Informal investigation, to then find out it was a formal disciplinary. I was told I would be going back to work as normal, even setting up a plan for my shift and childcare and, upon chasing them regarding my working hours the day before I return, I was informed 1.5 hours before close that I would not be returning to my role as they need to put some paperwork in place as well as talk about temporary work relocation. None of which was mentioned and even when I had the formal disciplinary, they talked about me coming back to work the following week.

My question is, what are my rights? Has anyone else gone through this?

My partner is supposed to be working half days to collect my son who has never left my side. He has broken his foot and is unable to drive or walk far so I have to collect my son and take him home on my lunch break as I don't want him in nursery full time straight away. If I move to a different site temporarily, I wouldn't be able to do this.
I feel like they are pushing me out/ using me as a Scape goat as I know that they have done this before. I have proof as they have changed the website of the company to say the person currently in my role is manager rather than interim manager and they have promoted in-house for other positions without using maternity cover.
When I spoke to legal advice, they said that it sounded like a fishing exercise and they want someone else to blame.

Has anyone else used pregnant then screwed?

These last few weeks have been soul destroying as I put my heart and soul into that place to be treated like this. I haven't slept and I have been absent from my son as my mind constantly goes to work or im just emotionally exhausted .It's really put a huge dampener on my last few weeks of maternity and I have had to source childcare quickly for meetings. Even celebrating my son's 1st birthday felt tainted.

Feeling overwhelmed

Does anyone else feel so overwhelmed they just want to run away sometimes? I feel so awful for feeling that way and that I should be so happy as I’ve wanted a baby for so long. Please someone tell me I’m not the only one.
