Husband had emotional affair - found out 3 months ago.
Hi.
I’m new here - literally registered today. My husband has had what I now know to be an emotional affair - I didn’t even know it was a thing. I’d been ignoring my instincts for about 3 months before I confronted him after finding messages on his phone 3 months ago. It had been going on for over a year. Runs and drinks in the pubs and messages - that disappeared.
I’m barely functioning. 18 years of marriage and I never EVER thought I couldn’t trust him. All of last year now feels a lie.
He has stopped contact. But they work in the same place. So there will be professional contact.
Just grieving and sad.
So sorry this happens to so many people.
