I should probably add, many of our problems stemmed from the fact that I had become disconnected in the past 6 months. The demands of my job had started to take over my life. I did not give my relationship the attention it deserved. This does not excuse my husband's behavior.
I have worked hard over the past 2 months in trying to build connections with my husband. I am less distracted and show genuine interest in our conversations. I leave work and come straight home to make dinner each day. I am more present in all of my relationships.
I am truly struggling. It is taking everything I have to not confront my husband about the fact that his affair has become physical. I have pretty much avoided contact with him all day. I am so confused by his behavior. He is obviously annoyed, concerned, and interested in my recent 180. His questions tell me he is concerned that I may be getting attention from men while I am out. Yet, he continues to have a relationship with another person.
