Sorry to hear about this beach.....a lot of good advice on here and some really stupid advice. You can sort that out on your own.
A couple of things that have appeared here and are sage advice.....
1) Get an Attorney and a good Counselor.....with your Special Needs child that you both are parents of, you will need some legal advice the matters of custody and some counseling on how to handle explaining the split to your child(ren). It's just not simple even when your child isn't Special Needs.....throwing in the world of an autistic child (high or low functioning) makes it a whole different story.
2) Get tested.....even if you don't believe you need to. Without guessing how many times they may have met that you might not be aware of, there is always the specter of how many partners (good or bad) that he has had outside of her. [Reply]

I had a long term girlfriend in college that cheated and ran off. Got knocked up a month or so later, was married in 3 months and getting beaten and divorced in a year. Somehow through a friend of a friend of a friend a pic of her popped up on my feed last week.....she looks like grimace now. My wife is hot...and faithful.
That's YOUR fault for having a 'long term girlfriend in college'.
I don't know if you followed my original thread years ago but as bad as it hurts please believe me it does get better. I went through a horrible depression, let her play with me because I loved her so much and was convinced that losing her would also mean losing my kids somehow.
But here I am almost 7 years later with full custody and only having to be away from my kids for 75% of their summer vacation. I'm not going to lie and say it was easy but once I finally got my head together and stopped believing we could work it out I was much better off.
And the icing on the cake was finding out that the guy she left me for did the same thing to her, and the next guy she married she's cheated on him with at least three people including both of their next-door neighbors. Once a cheater, always a cheater and be glad you only have one child together instead of three. [Reply]
