Hi, Martin —
Yes, essentially it is adultery, although (if I understand what you mean) it usually
involves fraud as
well. To confess it, just briefly explain the situation
to the priest and indicate you've taken the proper
steps to rectify it (whether it is putting away your
second wife, getting an annulment, or what have you).
For example:
"Father, after having married a woman in
the Church, I fraudulently married another woman
on the side while still married to the first. I
carried on this way for ten years, lying to both
women and explaining my absences as business trips.
I have divorced the second woman, ended our relationship,
and provided for her well-being. I firmly intend
not to do this again." |
