Oooh, Heimlich, that's an interesting point. My DH said that the disconnect in our understanding of the situation colored every interaction. I can make the point that his (inappropriate) emotional connection to this woman also colors every interaction, so that even if they're "just friends," the kids could easily sense that something is off.
Now, this brings up the question of what he tells them. "I'm going rafting with our friends like we did before, but this time you can't go." I made the point last night that I didn't want to lie to the kids outright, and I'm putting him in a similar situation, am I not?
I can't tell you how much I'm praying for that rock.
