Wife (f28) and mother of my 3 boys had a 3 month long affair with our neighbor and I just want to crawl in a hole and die

For 3 months my wife got emotionally and sexually involved with another man. She had been depressed for a long time between post pardum depression and the death of her father. I was not the best husband at all leading up to that. When things started with them, I instantly got suspicious and one night we had a big enough fight that CPS was called and I was not allowed to stay in our home for about 8 months. The first 4 was when they got serious. The remaining 4 she had broken up with him and was trying to repair our relationship because she claims she still loves me and feels like we are meant to be together. Since then we have moved into a new home and she has come completely clean about everything and still wants to try and work it out, but I am beyond devastated and hurt. Mostly because she is still getting over him while being totally content laying next to me. I feel like a second option, the safe bet and I don’t think I’ve ever felt so alone and wounded in all my life. But we have 3 boys together (6,2,1) and I want what’s best for them even if it means trying to work it out with her and stay but…….. I literally want to die I’m so broken hearted…. Any advice is appreciated.
