Sorry, one more thing that touches on a couple replies here addressing the possibility of an affair. I am 99.9% certain there hasn't been a physical affair, but I'm also nearly positive that as her job changed about 6 months ago that she developed a sort of warped fantasy/infatuation with her new boss who lives a few hundred miles away. She has to be in that office near him every other week. He's single, loaded, handsome, charming, etc and she was swooning over him and I think had work crushes on the other supposedly dashing men who work with him for the first couple months. (I've not met any yet, fwiw.) She got crazy obsessed with the gym, dropped a ton of weight (is too skinny now), bought a ton of new, designer clothes in her new size, takes way longer to get dolled up for her trips down there or a couple hours of makeup if they're visiting the office here.

BUT, over the past few weeks she's totally changed her opinion, or so it seems for now. She now can't stand the boss who's beyond cheap and stubborn and working her to the bone just to make his company money. He's no longer charming and sweet and generous as he came across the first few months.

So, I'm guessing there was a 1-sided emotional affair as this guy wants nothing in life but to make money for his company, and I supposed she's realizing that now and is processing those feelings. Any time this has come up over the past couple months she vehemently denies ever cheating in any way...but of course I can't know for sure. Thanks again for listening. Bless you all. smile
