To
keep it as short as possible I will leave out some
details but I began an
affair with my boss. He is 27, I am 23 and my
husband is 25. My husband knew where all my friends
lived and would show up in the middle of the night
begging me to come home. This got old and so I quit my
job and moved in with my
boss because it was the only place my husband
couldn't find me. I had one acquaintance my husband
didn't know so I just said I was living with her because
it was unverifiable. She consented to lie if my husband
started asking too many questions.
Why
didn't I
just divorce? I wasn't emotionally ready. I still
loved my husband and I didn't want to hurt him and a
part of me was still hoping he would change even though
I was
blissfully happy.
I
lived with my boyfriend for four months. He was my
BEST
friend. It was like two people sharing one brain. We
had a blast, did everything together. He acted like an
adult and we split all the chores and that kind of
thing,
communicated brilliantly, and our
chemistry was incredible. Not to mention me feeling
completely
safe and cared for in the bedroom instead of
violated. He helped me through my rough emotional days
with my husband, supported me financially while I was
looking for a new job, was
incredibly romantic and just made me feel safe,
happy and
hopeful for my future.
Then
one day my husband met me at the courthouse to
prepare for divorce. We didn't do it. Instead he
demanded I take him to the place I was staying so he
could be sure I wasn't
having an affair. I took him to the other girl's
house, said oops she didn't leave the key for me, we
can't go inside without a key, sorry, later tonight
maybe we can meet back up and I promise there won't be
any other guy's clothes. He broke into her house. He
didn't do anything bad, just looked around and we left.
She called the police and he was arrested for
trespassing. I felt so guilty because my lies had put
him there. So -- causing a
fight with my boyfriend -- I picked him up from
jail
and we left town to go stay at my parents' house. |
