No, I am a woman but I read a lot and I just saw a documentary on John Kennedy and it was well known that Jackie Kennedy knew that John cheated as did his mother know that their father committed many infidelities. These women stayed with their men for the prestege, and what their husbands money could give them.
It's not my kind of life but there are many woman who learn to keep their husbands lifestyle from their children by actually accepting that that is his lifestyle and trusting that he will stay with them... and that if he doesn't, they will pay heavily in alimony and child support to keep them in the life they have been accustomed to. Think Tiger Woods Ex wife. She was a nanny before she met Tiger. She's a multi millionair now.
There is absolutely no sense staying with him if you are lonely, feel betrayed and are freaking out about what he does everytime he goes on a business trip. You'd be foolish to stay if you are unable to accept and remain happy in your acceptance. Your children will not fair well if you and he can't keep up appearances.
