How is that any less offensive and hurtful?


If you are serious about saving your marriage, you can't get it all on this forum. You've got to listen to the Marriage Builders Radio show, every day. Install the app!

Married to my radiant trophy wife, Prisca, 19 years. Father of 8.
Attended Marriage Builders weekend in May 2010

If your wife is not on board with MB, some of my posts to other men might help you.

Didn't your husband tell you there was an affair? Most adults do want to have accurate information about their lives unless they are dysfunctional. Even so, you can't know unless you tell him. You do have a record of his wife telling him she had had 8 affairs, which is something he would obviously need to know.

I haven't found a way to contact this man and only have her email address. This is a woman that H never told me about - the affairs that he did tell me about were other women who were all single.

I don't either. I live in the Republic of Texas. I managed to find a betrayed husband in New Zealand and call him up.

Neither was the WW in my situation.
