Strong vibes your way, the silver lining is this happened to you at a young age, you've got your entire life ahead of you to meet Mr. Right.

Get a divorce. Oh and get yourself tested. Let's hope he didn't give you an STD.

You are very young, you will be able to get past this. Please dont make the mistake to think all men are scumbags, cause they are not. This one was. Use your experience with him to learn, but dont became bitter. Thankfully, you are very young and have all your life ahead of you.

Focus on yourself, on your goals, study, work, or whatever you want to do. Get together with friends, try to improve yourself, find a hobby or become better in whatever hobby you have. Think about you and what you want and give yourself time to heal. Everything will fall into place with time. Thankfully you are very young.

Good luck with everything

You really don't need to talk to him about the divorce. All communications can go through your lawyers at this point. If you don't have one, get one.

And don't extrapolate his behavior to all men. All men do not cheat. I'm sorry that your husband did.

I don't know where you got this impression? My family would never pay to take my ex on a family reunion.

We got separated the day we returned from vacation...I haven't seen him since June.

We were married the entire trip. Once we returned home I started the divorce process.

Posts like what?

I was merely asking you a question and giving you an answer to your question "Why do men continuously cheat?".

You say "There are MANY marriages where women stay with men and they give them tons of chances to get their act together because they don't believe in divorces and take their wedding vows seriously" .... so would you characterize yourself as one of these women? If so, why not give him a 5th chance?

If not, then it sounds like you are doing the right thing by divorcing him.

Sounds like there are very few if any assets involved. Has he been sending large sums of money back home? Could be sending marital assets to Mexico.

I believe SC is a no fault divorce state so it doesn't matter who cheated.

Sorry you're going through this. Like others have said, you're still young and have PLENTY of time to find Mr. Right. Not all of us men are dogs. Take some time to heal, maybe do something to better yourself like pick up a hobby, further your education, or volunteer. Become a better woman for the right man.

I got this from your original post which said you've been separated for over a year and you say "we" got back from Mexico in June.

What gives!? I am saying you are speaking in circles.

"I’m in the middle of a year-long separation. "

"We had a huge family reunion in Mexico (my side) and during the trip; he actually cheated on me with a 17 year old. "
