Nate, my H was in a secret friendship turned EA for about 2 years with OW before I found out by chance. (OW was an old flame from decades ago when H was single, she was with someone else at the time, so unfinished business, it seems.)

The EA turned into a secret PA for 4 months (all the time, H is lying), then he ended the A and we reconciled.

4-5 months later (H can't say precisely), OW contacts him again (at least that's what he says), and it becomes an EA again for 7 months or so. I found out by chance right before Christmas.

He now says the A has burned out (my words but what he describes) and he wants to rebuild M.

So I'm starting on my 4th year, and H and I are more open and honest with each other than we have ever been, and we fight less than ever - even before the A. Will we make it? Not sure, but I don't want to divorce. I really don't want to.

That's where I'm coming from when I say 1.5 months is a very, very short time... wink
