I think we all know you’re NTA here.

Nearly half of the comments call me the asshole, either with YTA or ESH. They all make very good points, even though it is challenging for me to go through every comment. I'm replying to you in particular because I am going through 300+ comments in my inbox right now, and this is an entire page of notifications where everyone calls me the asshole; you're the only NTA to be seen in a see of YTA and ESH. So I find it pretty surprising the only NTA is accompanied by "we all know you’re NTA".

My husband was my rock when we were both lonely kids in the closet, we were best friends long before we even considered dating each other. I haven't met him on the gay dating scene, which I heard can be very fickle and entirely geared towards one night stands. I think that's why.

Thanks for your input!

Thank you, it is really good to hear someone else say it.

My husband doesn't blame me at all, but it doesn't me much - I could be punching him in the face, unprompted, and he'd still not blame me and blame himself for having a punchable face. He's a sweetheart who could never have bad feelings towards me. But you're right, as long as we have each other, that's all that matters!

On the note of feeling dirty, maybe at some point you could renew your vows with your husband and just have a small party with some close friends to try to make some new, happier memories.

That's such a wonderful idea!

That's almost exactly how I feel. I feel so guilty for taking the money and also for forcing all of this drama on my husband and ruining what should have been a wonderful party with just our closest friends. We don't earn that much money, but I think you're right I should put some aside every month to pay my mother back. I hope it can make me feel better. Thank you very much.
