Hello Justus,
I am 36. My husband is 60. We have been together for 10 years. During the first four years we got along great, but he now says he wants to have affairs.
He texts women and tries to hide it from me. I found out he was texting his first ex-wife. It made me uncomfortable, so I asked him to stop. He didn't. When I realized he hadn't, I told him I would leave if it happens again. This kind of behavior has been going on for more than a year.
I am at the point where I don't want to cuddle or be affectionate with him at all. He commented the other day that he should be allowed to have an affair because I mentioned that I find Hemingway interesting. (He was known for affairs.)
I'm at a loss. I care for my husband and don't want to hurt him. But I'm also scared that I can't afford to be on my own. A little advice?

Hello Tammie,
Be more selective when choosing your mate is good advice . He had a first wife already, showing his lack of commitment. Now he's showing his lack of respect, by texting her in front of you. Here he is at 60 years old and talking about how he wants to date other people. It seems to me he's still immature. Men usually do what women allow them to get away with. Demand respect and it will be given, accept anything less and that's how you will be treated. You shouldn't be afraid of him leaving him because you have been married long enough to receive spouse's support. And it depends on the pre-nuptials if you should be entitled to properties as well. Talk with him about the situation but stand your ground.
