My fiancé and I have been together for over two years, except for about 2 months when we broke up. After asking me to come back to him he proposed and I moved in and we set the wedding date for May 2013. During the time he and I had been together before we split up I had always had a feeling something was going on between him and his ex wife but it wasn't until after we became engaged and living together that I found out that they had in fact been having an affair for almost the entire time of our relationship. Needless to say I was quite devastated. Once the ex wife found out about us planning on getting married and me living here she started causing a ton of drama. She kept his kids from him and they fought constantly which put a lot of stress and tension in our relationship. As the date for us to get married arrived he decided we weren't going to be getting married "bc of our fighting" and how upset I had been over his change of attitude towards me like I all of a sudden was the enemy. During his last days home(he works in the oilfield and is gone for half the month) I noticed him and his ex were back to getting along and she wasn't starting problems and was letting his kids stay at the house again. I immediately confronted him and asked if they were back to being up to no good hence his change of mind about getting married and them back to being bff's again. He claims to not know what changed her mind/attitude and she has a boyfriend now and there's nothing to worry about. My question is how do I get over the hurt of being cheated on? I want to confront her so bad and let her know that I know all about the two of them but idk if that would be the right thing to do. How do I know it's not happening all over again?? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

why confront her? she's not claiming to be in a relationship with you.

You need to figure out what your fiance needs to do to regain your trust - and you need to tell him - and you need evidence that he's doing the things you need for that trust to grow.

At this point, I'd suggest ending the engagement and working on the relationship.

@nikki8613,
I imagine that your fiancé adores his children right? When he is home 2 weeks of the month, he lives with you and the children are there too right? So, the little time he gets outside of all of this to have this "affair" could it be to ensure that he gets to see his children? As, in that is the motivation?

If he wanted to stay married to her he still would be, or living with her, yet he set a wedding date with you.

The real questions to me are... Is he being a fool, instead of going down the legal path, so that he can see his kids.

And, is he the sort of guy that can settle down, understands what constitutes a relationship or is he more of a drifter, working away for money, 2 weeks on, 2 weeks of and has done for some time, therefore, used to also being a bachelor.

A guy with kids from the previous marriage - who dallyed with the ex DURING your relationship with him?

He is gone 1/2 of every month?

Ye gads, girl. Get out of that one, fast.
