An older friend has recently been widowed and has been talking a lot about affairs she has had over the years.
I'm fascinated about it. How many people do you think, in long long marriages actually end up doing it? And how many spouses know? Do the same?
It's so interesting to me because I know of lots of people IRL who have had affairs at some point over the course of their lives. And it's treated so differently than I see discussed on here.m, I suppose because it's from a long time ago and not fresh.
Just a conversational question really. I've been with DH 15 years and don't think either of us would have an affair but it makes me realise how long and complicated life is and that you just don't know!
