Close that chapter in life by wishing him well in his unknown future and remembering he is now in your past.

Start over each day remembering what you have now. Remember how to enjoy your husband and kids. Forgive yourself as you would a friend in a similar situation and move on to becomming that woman you'd be proud to have as a best friend. Someone you admire, respect, trust, enjoy who wants you happy and not dwelling in a pity pool of guilt and "what might have been".

It will take time but you will get over this by putting past on a shelf, remembering the future isn't here yet, and finding the joy in the present.

A therapist might be an option also. Just know that not all people click and you may need to try several until you find one who helps you.

Good luck
