[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks again for your insightful comments. I am too ashamed to talk to any of my friends or family, and this board is helping me keep it together during work today. So thank you.

Like everyone who winds up in these awful shoes you never in a million years thought you'd be in, I just honestly never, ever saw it coming. In my eyes, at least, we'd never be the ones to have our marriage dissolve, period. We're the ones counseling the friends who go through this stuff. We're just not "that" couple. Except now we are, apparently.

I am not sure if the other woman had a motivation. She claims she had no idea I existed, and felt the need to tell me once she learned he was married because she would want to know. She says she does not want him, has not been in touch with him, and has moved on. Because of how honest I feel she was in her message, I do want to believe her. Sure, she probably feels hurt and wronged that he ended it. So motivation to get some revenge is likely there too. I actually feel sorry for her. But I also have thought many times over the last 24 hours that I wish she had never told me. Maybe it is best I know, in the long run. But I would give anything to turn back the clock one day and not open those emails.

I don't know how someone moves forward and stays, or how it goes back to being how it used to be. I feel like I would second guess everything that comes out of his mouth. We both have demanding jobs with long hours. I travel frequently for work. Will I always wonder if he is being faithful when I am on business trips? Or when he is doing emails on a Saturday morning? Or when he's reading through his texts next to me in bed? This is such a shit show. [/quote]
