OK, sorry to bring up this dead thread. I vented without thinking of the opinions of the group. I just wanted to hear someone say "you are right".
First, I read all the replies and have a couple of points to clear up.
Point 1: We went to a therapist. She said everyone communicates their feeling with a friend. Usually a gal to gal or guy to guy thing. She said however, it is not acceptable to release "personal info" to a complete stranger. We still go but, what I desire out of the relationship vs. her intent has changed.
Point 2: As a member of an exclusive and open forum, I was chastised for venting in this forum by the therapist. (I tried open communications, but was rebuffed. Point accepted by Doc.)
Point 3: The therapist noted how angry I got when I found the motel reciept from 20 miles away and wife refused to answer. Then the doc worked a reply from the wife. A innocent fling turned real ugly. My "wife" now has a STD which requires weekly treatment. (Thank the stars in the sky, I was "cut off".
Point 4: Our children will not become an issue. Until the last one reaches 18, there will be no discussion of this since it is not their problem.
Point 5: I had to change banks and credit card numbers since a withdrawl from our "shared" account happened in a city "several miles" away. The bank has refunded the money and now are pursuing the person.
Point 6: My computer has both tracking and logging software.
As I read all the posts, I realized I had stirred up a wasps nests of anger. I have learned what cost betrayal is and how to deal with anger.
Thanks for all the comments!
