ended marriage after infidelity

I ended up having an emotional connection with someone else while my husband was going through therapy, which ultimately led to him wanting a divorce

"I wish I had been more honest with myself about my feelings and needs in the relationship"
If I could tell you one thing
"Be honest with yourself and your partner about your feelings and needs, and don't be afraid to communicate them"
