God specifically allows for divorce on grounds of adultery.
To divorce your husband on these grounds would not be a sin against God. (Matthew 5:32)

Also remember Joshua 1:9 Be strong and of good courage.

Proverbs 2: 1-5

1: My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you,
2: making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding;
3: yes, if you cry out for insight and raise your voice for understanding,
4: if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures;
5: then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God.
6: For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding;
7: he stores up sound wisdom for the upright; he is a shield to those who walk in integrity,
8: guarding the paths of justice and preserving the way of his saints.
{{9: Then you will understand righteousness and justice and equity, every good path;
10: for wisdom will come into your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;
11: discretion will watch over you; understanding will guard you;
12: delivering you from the way of evil, from men of perverted speech,
13: who forsake the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness,
14: who rejoice in doing evil and delight in the perverseness of evil;
15: men whose paths are crooked, and who are devious in their ways. }}
