[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is awful. What are the logistics of having an affair starting in April 2020? Like how was that even possible? I'm assuming they were considered essential to even be out and about enough to do this?

Sorry if this is nosey...[/quote]

This is my question too.  What the heck is the cover story in the middle of the covid lockdown?  Not going to the gym or a work trip....[/quote]

OP here--yeah, I'm really wondering this too. I didn't ask logistics when talking to my sister for obvious reasons. I know he she has been back in work in person since August 2020 (education related work) and he has been home since March/April 2020. He's also had many work trips (but not before vaccines). I have no idea when you could start an affair with two young kids at the very beginning of Covid! Have no idea...but speculating that he'd be the type to go off on long walks by himself so maybe they'd meet up somewhere? It's a question that nags me too.[/quote]

*SHE has been back at work, my sister. He has been WFH.[/quote]

So let's review: For two of their nine year marriage he was cheating (likely more than two; I bet this started when she was pregnant with DC2), affair occurred while they had a baby and a toddler, he got to WFH while she went back in person during Covid, and it sounds like he confessed bc AP broke it off.

Yeah this marriage is toast. I say that with no glee. This is a nuclear bomb and I am so, so sorry for your sister. You sound supportive and loving, and it's the right thing to do to support her as he goes through all the iterations of what comes next, including counseling and attempts to reconcile, as it sounds like she wants that. And I can understand. Love is really hard. But this guy? Nopity nope nope.

This marriage may not end right away. But it will end. I'm sorry, and I'm glad she and her kids have you and your family.[/quote]

+1 to allll of this. Your sister's husband sucks and that reality is going to come through in the end.[/quote]
