@Pwebster,
You're equating two different elements. You were legally married when you cheated and that does carry more weight to it than the cheating prior to the "I do's."
Just to be clear though, she does not HAVE to move on. You betrayed her, and you get what you get. It isn't her fault that you cheated and it isn't her fault she can't get past it.
I get your point that after eight years, countless apologies and counselors, enough is enough, either forgive or don't. Well, ok, face the fact she doe NOT forgive you. And she won't -EVER. So now the issue is, for you to accept that or not. You can continue being married to someone who doesn't trust you, holds grudges, refuses to change and makes you miserable. Or not.
Whatcha wanna do now?
