reader, anonymous, writes (29 November 2010): I know how you feel. I'm not married, but after being cheated on I found myself always comparing myself to the other girl. In the end the relationship ended because I couldn't deal with always being worried about him cheating on me. To be honest, you deserve better. I'm assuming you were faithful when she was away? Even if she got "caught up" in the affair and was trying to "get back at you" she broke her vows. If I got married and someone cheated on me, I would give them a chance but I also would realize that they could do the same thing when I'm away again. And that is grounds for separation at least.
Sorry about the ramble, I think you should trust your instincts, It definitely sounds like you have doubts with your choice. Could you take her back with the knowledge of what she's done? Make it known that having an affair even if your miles apart is WRONG.
