This! If you tell, you are even more horribly selfish than you were when you decided to sleep with your ex. Any guilt you feel now is your burden to shoulder ALONE. NOT your husbands! You did this, now learn to live with it! |
+1 It never happened. |

This is like the movie with Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin.
No need to blab this to the world. It's private, just between you, your ex, and DCUM. |
| Yeah but if you have a baby boy as a result, please don't call him Gene. |
I saw this tv show, LOL. |
| This is one of the few times I would not want to know. Just never do it again. |
| If I were your husband, I would not want to know. |
| You both are trash and I hope your spouses find out. |
+1000 from a 2nd wife |
| If you tell and he just keeps saying "it never happened, she’s nuts" then what? Because that’s what I’d do. |
| Do std tests regularly. Is there a chance of pregnancy? If so, Plan B asap. |
Gene was not a result of the tryst between Don and Betty at Bobby's camp. Gene was a last ditch effort to test her love for Don as she watched her father in deep decline and the guilt-ridden relief she felt when she saw her father's new wife take care of him, thus relieving her of the responsibility. She thought it was her duty to try and stay married for everyone involved. The fling at Bobby's camp was completely between exes, no new spouses were ever told, and it softened the relationship between Don and Betty for both parenting and her ultimate demise. |
So true. Your husband already knows about your history with your ex. One weird nostalgic thing doesn't change the fact that you thought he was dog shit and divorced him. You married your new DH and, presumably, love him. It's not like you're pining away for the past. It probably just reminded you why there was a thing in the first place, a thing about which your new DH is well aware happened. |

It’s fine, OP. Don’t tell anyone in real life please. This person was your husband. It’s weird and unadviseable, but as a one time thing, don’t beat yourself up. He certainly isn’t… |
