DEAR ABBY: I did some investigating and recently found out my husband of 28 years has been corresponding with other women. This is the second time I have caught him. He’s sworn that nothing ever developed out of it, but I can’t help but wonder how far it would’ve gone had I not discovered it.
Should I walk away and start over, or stay in this marriage not knowing if I can stand another betrayal? Our sons are in their 30s, and we have no grandchildren yet. — MARRIED TO A CHEATER DEAR MARRIED: I wish you had been more specific about what your husband and these women were writing about. If it was sexual in nature, I can understand your concern.
Has he met either of them in person? If the answer is no, then it may be a bit dramatic to accuse him of betrayal. Rather than walk away, tell him you think it’s time for marriage counselling, and then ask your doctor for a referral for the both of you. DEAR ABBY: I’m 60 and retired.
My adult children and grandchildren live in the same city as I do. I want to move somewhere with fewer people, preferably a cabin, probably in another state. I feel extremely guilty at the thought of leaving my family, but at the same time I don’t want to regret not finding my little patch of peace and quiet.
I spent 25 years in law enforcement and really prefer solitude. I hope you can give me some advice. — SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO DEAR SHOULD I STAY: Please put down that burden of guilt.
After 25 years taking care of others, you have ea.
