I recently returned form visiting my family in the states. While i was there I found my husband had several conversations w/ ow. It hurt a lot because he talked to her an awful lot while I'm there. He says that when I'm away he gets lonely and they were friends and he calls in part out of old habit and to talk to his son. I don't want them to be friends! Is that too unreasonable? Since this contact makes me unfomfortable what should we do? I feel like I should feel ok w/H talking w/ow without me around but it hurts to much when I find out he does. While affair was going on I worked 1ft job and 2pt jobs and went to school. When I was gone he would call or vice versa and talk to OW and hang up when I came home. What are some boundaries that we can set up to safe guard our marriage?

You need to spellout what you need from him and from yourself. The boundaries for him needs to be based on what helps you. If he can't abide by what you need what are you going to do?
