In June I found out for sure that my husband was having an affair with a mutual friend. He admitted it (finally, after many point blank refusals over months). He’s moved out and we have filed for divorce.
I’m sure this is the right thing for me and our children (DCs between 4-7). But I find we are getting on very well again when we are together. I couldn’t go back to a marriage, but is it a problem that we seem to have gone straight to being best friends? I am very confused.
Meanwhile, the mutual (ex)friend is acting like nothing has happened which I am finding very difficult to deal with. They are no longer seeing each other as far as I know. She is staying out of my way but our children go to the same school and we do the same hobby in a small town so I am still seeing her all of the time. All of my anger seems to be directed at her which is probably not fair but that’s the way I feel. I seem to be getting more angry and not less. Do I need to try to let it go or maybe force a proper confrontation to get it off my chest?
Any advice or solidarity welcome, wise women.
