Dream’ husband shows worthiness over Internet affair
February 28th, 2007 by The Babe
Dear Ellie: I’ve been married to the man of my dreams for 25 years; yet I recently found someone on the Internet and met him several times for sex. My husband discovered this. I’m confused. I love my husband, but the “Internet Guy” is intriguing because everything is new and exciting. I’m afraid if I leave my husband, I’ll soon realize I made a horrible mistake. Was it reality or fantasy?

Dear Sleepless in Hamilton: Wake up and apologize to your husband. Your “fantasy” is hurtful reality. “Internet Guy” has no other place in your life than the fleeting moments of sex. He hasn’t looked after you and truly loved you. Your only connection was a temporary escape from real life – and you know little about him. By contrast, your husband has clearly lived up to all his responsibilities to you, along with your dreams of him. You’ll be lucky if he’s willing to continue. Be prepared – he may want to know a lot about why you cheated and how it happened. Spare him the lurid details but know that he needs enough information to put this behind him and not obsess about it. See below for more cheating “reality.”
