He assures me that nothing happened, but the emails that he sent her, the words he told her sounded like he was either in love or had a huge crush. i don't trust him and the idea of him falling for someone else is killing me. don't know what to do.

He could have been having a 'non sexual fling' like having fun and being cheeky without actually doing it. Its sort of like an option to an affair.

Perhaps he didn't sleep with anyone else, but, if his heart is elsewhere, then you do need to take this seriously. Would he have sent those e-mail messages if he were absolutely happy? Something is the matter, and you need to find out.

well, read over the words carefully. I mean typically when you stumble onto things via snooping .. that is what you did, if you look hard enough you will find it.
You assume worst case scenarios. You know what I mean, the wording is always difficult when you dont have the context to apply it to keep that in mind as well. For instance, I found a picture on my wifes phone of a naked guy.
Thats fairly incriminating, however, the naked guy wound up being a picture she took at a party and sent to his very embaressed girlfriend. Its all about trust.
Keep in mind you are married, as in commmitted in front of God , family and friends.
Hopefully this helps
