Some do end on their own. It seems like one of th partners become disallusioned with the fantasy.

There are as many answers to how long they last as there are affairs.

Have you read Surving an Affair? Read that and the articles on the site. Do the EN quiz. If he won't take it, take it for him using what you know about him. Start meeting his ENs. If he is in an affair, she is not meeting all of his ENs. You are still meeting some of them.

Plan A without exposure unitl you are certain there is an affair. Be alert, gather information.

See if you can get into marriage counseling - call the Harleys.

Most affairs end HT, only between 2 and 10% of affairs end up in relationships that last longer than 2 years according to Harley, dave Carder, Dr PHil and other reliable sources.

Its a very cowardly and dangerous option to let an a run it scourse IMO. there ar emany tools to use against affairs, but teh first one is courage.

I was terrified, but I exposed and wrestled Squids affair. Eventually i beat it to death with a pick axe handle.

I regret no part of that.
Read SAA and gather your tools up to fight this thing !
