Mum is plotting with ex

MY mother and estranged wife are ganging up on me.

They want us to get back together again.

I’ve met someone new but my mother says I have to dump her for “the family’s sake”.

My estranged wife is saying she can’t live without me and that her life will be meaningless unless I agree to give her a second chance.

But it’s all an emotional stunt.

The fact is that we broke up because she slept with my best mate before our wedding and for six months after it. In fact, she only stopped having sex with him when I caught them in bed together.

How am I supposed to forgive that?

JANE SAYS: Explain to your mum that you have no desire to heap shame on the family or embarrass her, but you can’t go back to the wife who cheated on you.

The marriage was never valid because your estranged wife uttered her vows while in a sexual relationship with someone else.

A failed marriage is a big disappointment, but you have to be able to start again.

Does your mum honestly wish to lose you as a son?

And does your estranged wife need professional help?
