Does everyone want to know how this turned out?

He came home for lunch and I told him I wanted to talk about the situation again. Because of all of your helpful posts, you gave me the confidence to tell him I didn't like him running with her so often and that I called Pacers and found a running group that he could join two days a week at 5am. I even mentioned seeing her text "Happy Birthday, Gorgeous!"

He smiled at me and said, "No problem. You are the most important thing in my life. She is the type of person that just gets really close to crossing the line of inappropriateness. If you want me to stop running with her, then done. She was just the only person that would reliably show up every...single...morning and run with me and kept me motivated but it's not worth it if you're uncomfortable. Will you please start running with me? We'll figure out what to do with the kids that early. And if you can't run that far, you can ride your bike or just stop early and I'll keep going. Even better if you could come with me to this running group."

DC Urban Moms...thank you very much!! I'm feeling A LOT better and I guess I'm going to start running now!

None of this happened.

You re gullible. OP just provided her husband with the perfect alibi. " How could I be having an affair! I haven't run with her in months! I only work out with you!"

Happy birthday gorgeous????? Um no. Totally inappropriate. He's banging her.

They’re having some type of affair or will soon. They find each other attractive and spend a good amount of time alone together, which is only asking for trouble once someone caves. Sorry, OP, but I’ve seen situations like this happen many times and it’s never innocent. Temptation....

They will still see each other at work, at least occasionally. Is this correct? Let us know if the odd texting continues on her part. Of course I guess it is possible *if* there is something going on that he will now delete new messages or use a texting app.

It's definitely a recipe for an affair and seems like she would be the one to make the moves. Ask him to stop running with her.

This seems to be the minority opinion, but, I agree. He doesn't seem to be cagey about it.

That's the ultimate tool of a cheater. No sneaking around. My stepdad brought his AP around my mom plenty. They, too, were work colleagues (and, incidentally, he took up "running" as a means to meet her).

Yup, hiding in plain sight. Works like a charm.

I trust my husband, but wouldn't be comfortable if he was out running with a female most mornings.
I would find the hottest guy in town and start working out with him every evening when he is at home. Then after a week ask him how if likes it.

If this did actually happen (which I doubt), then he gave up his running buddy and kept his f*ck buddy. OP's DH and his little blonde friend are probably laughing now.

...and why would the hottest guy in town want to work out with you?

Did you read anything besides the post right before yours? She already asked.

How insecure are you? You're just going to start running because you are threatened by his running partner? He already said he's worked with her before professionally. Are you going to do that too?

I would have believed all of it until her DH reportedly said, “Why dont you run with me - we’ll figure out what to do with the kids that early”. And all with a smile plastered on his face. Er, huh?? What can you do with your kids at 5am? There’s just no good option.
