Maybe my point of view will clarify a few things.
I had in two occasions, been reunited with ex boyfriends and in both cases I heard big, big words. Soulmates, dear friend, history etc.
I was not in a loving marriage, I am divorced with a child.
I did not feel that kind of "destiny" that they did, maybe cause I got burned and lost any romantic notion.
But it made me realize how much I needed too, to be close to someone from my past, my youth. Before I had all these responsibilities.
Its what the person represents, our youth, our memories, that part of ourselves we keep alive and we dont know that its long gone.
And we, they, he gets carried away with Hollywood expressions, but at the end of the day, real life is with wifey and hubby and kids and (unless they are horrible), even if we, they ,he gets tempted to live a romantic story with a bit of drama, like in the movies...at the end of the day, no one that is in his/her right mind doesnt leave his/her family that easily.
If I were you, I' d do these 3 things.
a) I d stop snooping, better not to know, trust me, sometimes a fling is just a fling and its irrelevant with your common life
b) dont feel threaten by something they shared before he met you. He is reliving it in his mind but it will blow over, trust me, and she might be a good friend of both of you (I know I was, never engaged in bad behavior with these ex boyfriends and I genuinely was touched when the wife was friendly or at least, willing to give me a chance to be a friend cause thats what I needed, a continuance)
c)Let him go through this. Its important for his personal growth to see who he is now, in reality.
If he wanted out, the mails would have been different, trust me.
Hope I helped |

Yeah, you should be concerned. Talk to your husband about it. If he is "passionately" in love with you as his email claims, he should be willing to give up communication with this woman. She is bad news and the way he is talking to her is not conducive for a healthy marriage.
Even emailing romantically and fantasizing about being with another woman could be considered cheating. If he won't cut off ties with her... I would cut off ties with him... not necessarily divorce, but maybe separation for a time.
It would be really hard for you and your kids, but in the long run, it could be what opens his eyes and saves your marriage. |
