Marital Bliss is a myth. I have seen it time and again and its always the same. You get married, have children, tire of your spouse and stray. The situation varies for every couple but the out come is the same...pain, confusion, despise and anger among other feelings. It is a time to reflect on your vows and promises to God regarding your marriage. Especially if children are involved.

As mentioned earlier, every situation is different. If your spouse is a chronic cheater, kick him or her to the curb. However, mistakes happen and sometimes there's more to the situation than meets the eye. In cases like this it is important to reflect on the many or few years you have been together. Was your spouse just, loving, caring, attentive to you and your children if any? Was life supposedly good and your marriage has hit a rough patch? These and more conscious questions should be asked.

Forgiveness is not easy,but it is essential in order to repair an already fragile relationship. You will hear almost everyone say, "Leave him/her...you deserve better!". This may be true, but like I said, it depends entirely on the circumstances. If your spouse is remorseful, don't you owe it to yourself to see if his apology is genuine.

For better or for worse, that is the vow you made when you got married. This is the for worse moment that will test your faith, your demeanor and ability to overcome a pain no one should endure.
