My husband slept with one of my close friends 6 years ago. He just told me a few days ago during a heart to heart talk that lasted until early morning .... until that moment....
we were together for 6 years, we had just moved back to his home town across america. We were in our early 20's partying n hanging out, my friend (we'll call her D) had a pretty rough home life and stayed over a bit. I went to work while the 2 stayed passed out at home (so I thought) kickin it what not right? I didn't feel threatened ya know she was, not to be rude, but not very attractive. Anyways she stayed heavily in our lives for about 3 years. we all talked openly sexually so I thought, yah know bustin balls and sharing stories n stuff. My husband is totally into horror movies n gore n cool **** like that where as I wasn't too exposed to it growing up so a conversation about horror movies n gorey **** was like a foreign language to me , directors, scenes, story lines, whatever...... she was into it I enjoyed seeing my husband talk about something he honestly was totally into. It was ****** cool!! But I started to feel it, I started to feel like I was the fifth wheel, I told him, I told him, he knew I was jealous of their connection. I started to resent her I knew it I felt it but I trusted him. I just thought I was being selfish for feeling this way. He said it happened 3 times, over a period of about a 2 months. He said there was not cuddling, no crazy sex missionary and lame, right of course what I want to hear right? Well anyway he said she broke it off came over one day (didn't **** him , so he says) and said we cant do this anymore and she didnt want to ruin "our" mine and my boyfriends 6 year love...... as if that wasnt already ****** at this point right? He said he was angry with her but I guess we all continued to hang out and party after that. this was in 2001. we moved 2002 and married in 2003 life was going beside all the constant partying n drinking, we were very happy, so I thought. We moved again outta state back to the west coast , we stopped drinking n partying, I went to college and moved on to be a Mental health couselor. I have learned so much being in the mental health field. Why we do what we do, our behaviors, our triggers, our issues and how to deal with them. Butr when My husband threw this one out there all my training flew out thew window I feel lost and shook, my heart is heavy and Im not sure what the **** to do or say I want to respect that he was finally honest , but at what cost. I cant imagine spending my life any other way but I thought he has always been honest and to say you dont want to **** other people or are not attracted to other people would be lying to yourself. You just should have enough sense not to dip it in, right? Hes a guy I know that but seriously the pain I can physically feel right now in my heart doesn't feel like it was worth it. I know what an aching heart really is. I sent her a text message and said we need to talk Im sure she has been thinking about it all night. Im not sure what to say. or do I need some words of wisdom. WTF man WTF?
