Dear Queenie,
I have been having an affair for a couple of years with a friend from high school who is married to someone else. Recently we haven’t been seeing each other so often and he keeps making excuses for it. I think maybe he has found another girlfriend and is cheating on me with her.
Queenie, should I let his wife know what has been going on and what is happening now?—The other woman
Dear Other woman,
If your lover would break his marriage vows and cheat on his wife, what makes you think he would not cheat on you? After all, he has not made any such commitment to you.
If you want to have it out with your lover, by all means do so, but why punish his wife for what he may have done to you?
