Stuck between a rock and a hard place here.....
To cut a very long and sordid story short, my best friend discovered a year ago that her OH of 20 years had been having a 2 year affair with a woman he met through some online chat room. After coming and going several times over the next 6 months he finally left (rather than being thrown out!) and it seemed like the marriage was finally over. The teenage children although distraught seemed to be coping reasonably well & the family were moving forward as a threesome.
During this period my BF told me a whole raft of intimate details about their marriage, which quite frankly, would make me want to run a mile, but hey, ho, each to their own.
Anyway, 2 weeks ago I got a call from her saying her husband had turned up at the house, professing undying love, & apologies, saying that the other relationship was over & asked if he could come back. Staggeringly, not only did she agree, she had also shipped him back home by the next day!! No taking it slowly, no counselling, let's just sweep this all under the carpet. kids are understandably livid, especially the eldest who is in the middle of GCSEs.
So here we are now... BF is thinking he is a changed man, all can be forgiven under the label of 'mid life crisis' blah blah. However rightly or wrongly I have been checking out his Twitter account & it is embarrassingly obvious that he is 'online flirting' with several women. IMO even if nothing physical is happening, given his history you'd think that if he was sincere in his intentions re. the marriage, Twittering like this would be the last thing he should be doing??
Part of me feels I have a duty to at least ask my friend if she has seen his Twitter page but my OH thinks I should take a back seat & just be there when it all comes crashing down again (of which he is quite convinced!).
Gah, what to do... I just want my friend to be happy but cannot quite beleive her lack of self worth/self respect.
