Should I go on holiday with my cheating husband even though we are separated?

I found out about 2.5yrs ago my husband had been cheating throughout our marriage including a number of affairs. He only told me when I confronted him with pictures. We committed to working on things (for me it was about keeping my family together as we have two kids) and went to counselling etc. But things deteriorated again and it was mutual for him to move out. He has pretty much left town. We have kept civil etc and I was thinking of going to see him where he is and take our youngest with me for a week holiday which sounds so attractive right now...I need a break, I'm emotionally exhausted looking after everything. But it would mean leaving my eldest at home by himself (his choice and I trust him). I also since found out he has been on tinder and other dating/hookup sites and has even thought about contacting one of his affairs. Is he pulling my chain and should I just face that things are over and tell him to get stuffed? Or should I accept the airfares and go and enjoy the sun and beach? I'm so confused.

Tell him to go jump! It won't be much of a holiday staying with a cheating ex husband!

Do it if you want to but what he does now is pretty much none of your business, so don't use any of that as a reason not to go. Out of interest how old is your eldest and why can't he go if you choose to?

It's over. Send the kids to him or to family and take a nice holiday for your self- with a friend or a new guy, but not him.

No way! You will come back heart broken and even more confused. Guys like this lack boundaries and so he will try and draw you back into a relationship and break your heart all over again.
The further away you can stay from him, the safer and better off you will be.

Take the airfares baby, book a hotel, drop the kid off with dad for some manly bonding and turn your phone off. Holiday come at me style. I'm assuming there's no agreement that you're going to reconcile and it's just an offer to get away...

Go on your holiday else where by yourself lol

If he wants to see his kids, he can arrange for the kids to have a holiday with him or come see them himself.

He moved away and again shows lack of responsibility and now your meant to go along for the ride no way , drop kid off and go away by yourself bout time he shipped up he has no boundaries what so ever and the fact that you got away and are even considering getting back with him as you were not clear is no just no you made the break leave it there let him man up for once and put his hook ups on hold so he can do some actual bonding with his child !

Send the kids to be with their dad, you have time out at home.

Talk to relationships Australia. Create a parenting plan. Move on. It’s now about learning how to Co-parent

No. He’ll no. Is it a ploy to report you to child services for leaving older child at home and get custody of him?
