If you're worried about it, it's time to discuss these worries with your husband or therapist to find out whether there is any basis for the distrust.


Sean had lunch regularly for 7 months with women, his classmates. Did I need feel fear or distrust? Jealousy or anger? No. Did I feel either of those? No. Even though our relationship has had rocky times, mostly related to my affair, we both accept each other for who we are. He has numerous female friends and I have more close male friends than I do female friends. It's not a problem in our home.

Not just no, but Hell no!! Those lunches were part of the way in which my own A got started and got way out of control. Better to avoid the temptation and that possible intimacy.

Just my oppinion.
