Husband and much younger female co-worker

[mum2three]

Dear AntoniaB thank you so much for that. I am so happy that you took the time to post. It was really helpful. I think my earlier post was probably only 'released' after it had been moderated. I would hate to be in this situation with no inkling that something might be afoot so I am glad that I have been alerted and won't suddenly find out through another source and be completely shocked at the dishonesty. I was really interested in the similarities..It sounds as if your friend and her 'friend" are stuck in some limbo which maybe suits everyone but I can't believe they have kept it up for 7 years! I just feel that if a marriage is worth staying in, it is worth investing in but perhaps this is her way of staying faithful in the marriage. I have invested more time now in really good friends and family and in GAL; and will see if this wins DH around, although aware that it might not!! It really helps having you lovely people here. I could not talk to my family as they would be so cross with DH but here I feel supported. I would be really interested to have any more insights into your friend's situation. Her husband is lucky to have you there to keep half an eye out for him!
