    Hi S&S,

    Just wanted to add my experience onto your thread. First of all big (hugs) to you. This was me in December 2010 forced to tell my DH after a text message from a CC company.

    I remember the sick feelings etc but in all honesty you wont believe it now but it was the best thing I ever did. That night I had the best nights sleep in god knows how long.

    Sometimes things just start off small and spiral so much bigger. There was never a good time to tell my DH hence why I didnt! I was so scared he would divorce me aswell!

    Good luck, let us know how it goes xx

  • I'll keep my fingers crossed for you, hopefully he'll understand but he deserves to know.

    Keep your chin up - the worst bit is telling him, the rest is up to him xxx
