Wife keeps bringing up
husbands long affair
DEAR ABBY: I have
known my husband my
whole life. We have been
married 20 years and have
three teenage children. Last
year, I caught him cheating.
Turned out he had been
with someone for seven
years. Our children and I
were devastated, and he
swore up and down he’d
never do it again.
I am occasionally trig
gered by things I see,
things he says or does, or
things I know he has done
with her. When it happens,
I usually bring up the affair
again. He can’t stand that I
do. He says we have to put
it in the past and work on
our marriage. I told him
this may be easy for him to
do, but I’m not that kind of
person. I tend to overana
lyze and dwell on things.
We have been to mar
riage counseling, and I was
grateful for that because he
was always against it. It
helped somewhat. I need to
know how to stop bringing
up these matters because it
is ruining my health and
our marriage. I love him
very much.
One more point: I’m
insecure because he is in
the military and due to be
deployed for a year. I’m
afraid he may go online
and start talking to some
one. He swears he won’t do
this to me again and he’s so
sorry for what he did.
Please advise. —
TOTALLY LOST IN
NEW JERSEY
DEAR TOTALLY
LOST: I’m glad counseling
helped you and your hus
band through the rough
patch. Now it’s time for
some more _ for YOU, to
help you cope with your
insecurity issues. Making
yourself crazy over what he
“might” do during his year
of deployment isn’t helping
you or the state of your
marriage. You have to
make a decision about
whether to trust your hus
band — and then proceed
from there.
DEAR ABBY: An
acquaintance from 40 years
ago contacted me three
DEAR ABBY
Jeanne Phillips
years ago after, he claims,
searching for and finding
me on social media. We
have been speaking on and
off since then, but he’s now
calling every day (some
times twice a day) saying
he’s making travel plans to
come see me. He lives in
Canada; I’m in
Massachusetts.
Way back when, he
begged me to sleep with
him, knowing I was dating
his best friend. His friend
was out of town at the time.
Shocked and blindsided, I
caved under his pressure
and acquiesced, and then
slept with him a second
time. My boyfriend was
still overseas, and I
couldn’t tell if he had any
intention of returning.
This acquaintance has
yet to send me even a
thorn, much less petal from
a rose during the past three
years and has ghosted me a
number of times. Should I
entertain the idea of seeing
him, let alone think there
could be anything more?
I’m divorced, my children
are grown and I haven’t
enjoyed any male company
for the last 14 years. All
this time I’ve just been
tending to my family. —
DESIRING MORE THAN
CYBERLOVE
DEAR DESIRING
MORE: You may be lone
ly, but please, start thinking
rationally. For your own
sake, do not become fur
ther involved with a man
who would seduce a
woman who is dating his
friend and who has ghost
ed you “a number of
times” in the last few
years. During the periods
in which you have been
ghosted and lonely, it
appears he has been very
busy! This person is not to
be trusted with your heart
or anything else.
