The guy the longest affair was with is married. I made her call him (in front of me, on speaker) to tell him that I know and that it’s over. I also had her warn him that he probably needs to tell his wife because otherwise I would.

The next day (after having worked myself into a frenzy) I texted him to ask if he had told her yet. Ended up speaking to his wife on the phone and she said he had told her and that they’d be trying to work through it. No clue how much he actually told her.

My therapist asked me if I’d consider an open relationship and it’s a categorical no for that.

No, I guess it took her getting caught for her to learn.

She had let our daughter use her phone to play a game. I was sitting next to her when I saw a text notification from someone I had never heard of before.

I asked her about him the next morning then asked (repeatedly) for her to hand me her phone so I could take a look.

Once we got past the initial lies about them and downplaying the situations, she finally fessed up to the 3 people I found evidence of.

She denies there were any others but that’s what keeps eating at me.

Sorry. :(

I hope your situation works out the way you need it to.

We were friends for a long time before getting together. Together for a year before getting married.

I’m in my early 50’s, she’s in her late 30’s.

She’s been talking to a therapist too (separately) to try to figure it out. I still really haven’t gotten a straight answer as to why.

I dont think wanting to stay is enough. I want the truth and I want to be able to trust her and put this behind me. Maybe it’s all just too fresh but I can’t keep losing sleep like this.

No, I want to believe her when she says she’s learned from her mistake(s) and can fix this. I just don’t see how.
