Been married for 3 years, husband has cheated on me via online. He keeps saying he wants out, but at the same time he tries to work things out with me.(not so much ) because he hasn't said 'i love you' in months. Plus he doesn't hug, kiss or touch me in anyway unless he feels he needs 'some lovin' for the night.
I love him, but I feel like we are more like roomates than anything else. I have been to myself, hardly talk to him for the same reason.
is this worth trying to work out? help.. thank you.

If he isnt trying to work it out then Id say get out while you can. Anybody that is truly sorry for what they have done will go to all limits to prove they are sorry. I cant tell you what to do b/c when you are through with him you wouldnt be asking for advice. You still love him and dont want to let go. But if hes not wanting to try then why are you? What would be better for you? its time to stop and think about what you want. and is it unsecure and married or secure and happily single?hope I helped...

If your husband refuses to get counseling you have no other choice but to face the truth. You cannot go on living this way and hurting everyday.You can just as well be unhappy without him as well as with him so you have nothing to lose at this point but something to gain and that is your self respect! This is emotional abuse and you have the choice to end it once and for all and put a stop to it. You may still love him but this does not mean that you can go on living with him when he can't and won't be right. You deserve better than the dirty rotten deal he is giving you now and you do not have to settle for that. As long as you allow this situation to go on he is never going to change anything unless he is forced to see that your life will not be kept on hold for him. This may wake him up but then it may not but one thing is for sure ....you cannot keep on doing what you are doing and you have to make that change and leave him to himself. I would never want to be there with anyone for any reason if they did not want me there. Your husband has some very severe issues in his own personal life and always remember that it is more about him than it was ever about you. You take yourself into counseling and find the strength and the courage to find a better way of life for you.You need to find someone else that holds you up in your world and not down.

If he is not willing to work things out in your marriage, then he is not worth the time or energy. Of course you love him but you can't waste your love on a careless person forever. Leave him for a little while and see if he doesnt change for real. If he doesnt, then it's not worth the effort, baby. Love is a horrible thing to waste and I'm sure you can find someone else that can love you back.

When you two got married you promised each other things. I know that in this day it really does not matter any more. Still, you promised each other, to stick together and to be true. It seems to me that you should try to work it out TOGETHER, sit down with him and seriously talk about it, talk about everything! How your feeling and what you want to do about it, listen to him as well. Let him tell you how he's feeling and what he wants to do. Then come to an agreement
Best of luck
I'll pray for your marriage

I don't think he is trying to work things out. I know it hurts, but it will only get worse if you stay with him. I went through something similar and he finally left for the other woman. I met my husband less than a year afterward. If we had worked things out I would still be in that miserable situation.

Apparently the trust is broken so you should seek marriage counseling to help both of you. Only you can decide if the marriage is worth saving. If there is love lost between the both of you why stay in it.

If he cannot commit fully, better to let him go on his own way, so you can have freedom to find a man who will treat you the right way. If he is serious about staying together, he MUST show it, first by cutting off the online relationship. If not, byebye......

Only you can know that. If he isn't willing to go to marital counseling, then get a lawyer. He's just biding his time.
