The Affair on My Husband's Heart
A couple in their 30s have a 3-year-old child.
My husband keeps in touch with his former female colleague every day. My partner is the same age and single.
There was a time when my husband suddenly became strong against me and my kids, and I thought it was strange and ended up looking at my smartphone. Then, only conversations with this person were set to have a key.
I was so upset that I immediately questioned my husband. Then
・A confession was made before the other party retired
・Until now, I've tried not to be aware of it, but now that I've been confessed, I don't understand what I think of the other person
・I cannot look at my wife (me) as a woman in the same way as before delivery
I was told. After that, they discussed it and decided to start over as a couple, but my husband got into fights with me while on assignment alone, and they thought about death when they were worried about work. I was told that since I was grateful to be consulted at that time, I couldn't completely break off the relationship, that I wanted to return the favor when the other person was in trouble, and that I wanted them to forgive me for that.
My husband was assigned alone for about a year since I had given birth. We are living together now. While I was away, I couldn't afford to care for my husband because I couldn't afford to raise children, so I forgave them that time on the condition that they didn't communicate in a way that I couldn't show them, and that they didn't hide or erase them.
Since then, we've been communicating every day from good morning to good night for over half a year. The content, from my point of view, is when we both liked each other and had the most fun before we started dating, but it feels like there are no clear words like like like that. It seems that they didn't want their partner to feel the sign of their family, and when they played with their kids and got a late reply, they lied that they were sleeping, and acted as if they were working during a family trip. Also, I lied to my partner that I was seriously ill. Sometimes the content is racy, so I hide it or delete the chat. Even if we try to discuss it, they say that family is important, but if I can't stand it, I have no choice but to get divorced, and it's hard for me too.
My partner and husband aren't close enough to meet, and so far they're really just continuing to have flirty conversations every day.
Am I thinking too much because I'm worried and suffering from this situation? The current situation is difficult, but my head is in a mess with anxiety about life after divorce. I'm just worried, and other than that, we spend our time as a family normally.
From an objective point of view, what would my problem look like?
