MLC - standing by my man

[Mila]

Business meeting with WH was very interesting today.

Couple of weeks ago we had a big discussion about our ability to continue running the business together. He left town to see OW without telling me that he was going or when he was coming back. I wasn't sure if he was even coming back. He was gone for over two weeks. I told him that I feel that I can't trust him and that I don't know what he will do next. That I have been looking for a job. What if he decides to move 1000 miles away to be with OW?

He started to cry and said that he is very upset that I don't trust him (seriously?) that I should know him that he would never abandon us or the business. If I don't trust him personally, I could 100% trust him as a business partner. He will work very hard, business will improve. "Please trust me, work with me, we need each other, I will not move away" he pleaded.

So after a long discussion I agreed to stay in business with him. I was thinking that maybe it's a good thing, It would keep us in touch and talking (we always worked great together) and I will have a chance to DB.

Few days ago OW husband called and asked me if I know that WH is doing work for OW company? NO I didn't. So today I asked him about it. Sure enough he is. Said that she is not paying him anything for it; he is doing it for free. Well I'm not so sure, maybe she is paying him cash that's how he finances his trips to see her? He swears that that's not the case.

I told him that I'm really upset about him not telling me about it, he did it behind my back using company time and resources. He said that's why he didn't tell me because he knew that I would be upset. He actually said that he is sorry that he should have told me.

And then he said that he is upset with me for talking to OW husband. That the husband uses everything that I tell him as ammunition to convince his wife to come back.

I the last call I've read OWH a Mother's day card my WH gave me while already having the affair.

"Sweetie,
You are an amazing mom! I love you more then anything else in the world. You are loving, kind, compassionate, caring, devoted, dedicated, adoring - the best!!!
(Daughter) has the best mom she could ask for and I have the best wife I could wish for".

So OW obviously was upset about it. From how my WH was acting it looks like the OW is not convinced who she wants.

I told him that I'm sorry that he is upset at me for talking to OW husband that we just talk to each other for support.

Then WH said that he is upset because he would like to talk to me about "things" that are on his mind but doesn't because he doesn't want me to tell the husband. I told him that I would never tell anything to anyone if he ask's me not to and that I'm here anytime he needs to talk. He started to cry and said "I don't have anyone else to tell things, thank you".

I find this intriguing any comments?
