Hi.

My live in boyfriend of 8 years posted an ad on the internet for a discreet sexual encounter. This is the second time in eight years. I am lost and confused and don't know what to do. He says nothing has happened & I know this to be true from his emails. Once I confronted him about the ad he said he was sorry & I loves me & wants to stay together. But lies continue. He said he didn't respond to anyone else's ad, but I know he did & sent pictures. The relationship has been rocky for some time. His ad states something is missing in his life and some things said can not be forgotten. I feel hurt, angry, embarrassed, confused and as if I have lost all self-respect. We have two children together. Lately my boyfriend has been very depressed, because of financial matters. Now I feel I can't even discuss his ad because I don't want to cause more problems or more depression. I REALLY NEED SOME ADVICE. PLEASE AND THANKYOU.
