Got caught right before

So I caught my husband red handed texting a female he met three days ago. I’m the type of wife who has always been trusting, never kept him locked in. I have never needed to worry about him straying away. He went to the beach on a Friday with his friend for his bday, he went all day and didn’t come back until 12 at night. I destroyed him for that because he works long hours and sometimes doesn’t even have time to spend with me and my son. I told him, if you have time to spend all day and night with your friend, then you have time to take your son out for a walk every day regardless of how busy you are with work. He said sorry, you’re so right… I will work on it… I’m sorry. Saturday he took us to a splash pad, we had dinner with my son, it was a great day. Sunday we went swimming and came home. Monday our son had a very bad stomach virus, he’s two. I was cleaning up puke every where, did laundry fives times, he worked all day long, come 8 pm he says he has to meet a client. I never thought any of it because many of his clients I know and after work they usually go and drop off cash for my husband. However I couldn’t find my phone and I used his to call it, that’s when I found out… he met a girl that Friday. The Friday I told him how hurt I was for not spending time with us, then I find out he was texting her all weekend and on MONDAY, when his child was sick as heck, he decided, that’s the night I’m about to throw it all away. I said who the hell is this and why are you called her baby and sexy. And why do you want to kiss her lips so bad. I was ready to throw hands and beat the living shit out of my husband, but I couldn’t because our son was right infront of us. Our marriage wasn’t great, it suffered but mostly because of him. He wanted to move out of country so we moved into my parents basement , after living in our own home. I supported his dreams, said okay this way we can save more. But it only put a strain on our marriage being here, we have no privacy, our sex life struggled, he works 16 hours a day , then I’m with my son all day. I’m tapped out and I feel like he has made me feel because I don’t give him enough attention or affection or sex. That that’s why he went looking somewhere else. I feel so disgusted , I feel so betrayed. He said he doesn’t know if he would of done anything. I said I don’t care if you banged her ten times, the texts where there, you had intentions and you’re sorry you got caught. Now he’s crying like a baby, saying he can’t lose us, he wants therapy, he wants us to get help but now I’m pissed, I now have to work on my marriage issues from before , all while navigating how to trust again and forgive.
