I was nine months gone when I found out my husband was cheating with a lady in his office. The lady is also a married woman. Because they are in the same office, they travel together often on office assignments. I think that was what sparked the flicker of their relationship.

When I found out, my husband apologized and said I should not work myself up because of my condition. Three days later, labor started and I was sent to the hospital. While in labor, all I could think about was the cheating incident and the fact that my husband saw the lady every day.

I was angry and crying and pushing while thinking about the lady and how she spoke to me nicely the very first time I met her. I never felt threatened because I knew she was married and everything that existed between her and my husband was purely professional.

When I came home, I asked my husband what he was doing about his closeness to the woman. “I can only forgive when I know the woman is no longer close to you.” He told me he was asking for a change of department so he wouldn’t be close to her. He told me he had told the lady I’d found out about their relationship so it was better they parted. He told me they don’t talk unless it was about their job.

He had said all that, but something tells me more has to be done to push the woman away. I have her number. I want to call her myself and warn her to stay away. I want to tell her that I’m ready to hurt her marriage just the way she has hurt mine if she doesn’t stay far away from my husband. I want to ask her to resign and go far away from my husband, or else I would invite her husband into the story.

My husband thinks it’s a bad idea and that I should trust him to handle the situation. How can I trust him when he is the one who brought this issue of mistrust into our marriage?

Is There A Man Out There Who Doesn’t Cheat?

I’m breastfeeding with a restless heart. My husband comes from work and all I see is the lady’s hands all over his body. Until I speak to the woman, my heart won’t be at peace. Do you blame me for wanting to protect what she almost destroyed?
