I Agreed to a Break, But Now I am Having a Hard Time Moving On

I don’t know what to do, I agreed to a break in our relationship but now I am having a hard time moving on. Last April my wife told me she wanted to take a “break” from our marriage because she was not happy. She made it perfectly clear that she was open to the the possibility of being with another man during the break and that I should take advantage of the situation. Well long story short in May I found out I had contracted herpes from her and after all that she wanted to call the break off and come back to our marriage. Am I wrong to take her back? I did agree to the break even though I felt like I had no choice, I did not see anyone else while we were on the break, obviously she did and it turns out it was a co-worker who is married with children. I have an idea who it is but to tell the truth I think I would rather not know. I am still having a hard time forgetting this and moving on I love my wife and don’t want to separate but I need some advice.

It definitely isn’t easy to get beyond it especially with the std involved. You both could probably use some counseling. Aside from that you should communicate and discuss your relationship frequently and openly. Understanding each other’s position and feelings will go a long way in mending the wounds. She seemed insensitive to you when she took a “break.” Relationships are not all about one person. Until you can establish that fact it could happen again.
