Dear Agony Aunt,
                             My name's Alicia and I'd really appreciate your opinion about my case: I have just learnt that my husband of 15 years had an affair with a colleague at his workplace a couple of years ago. I am sure that they stopped their relationship after a few months. My husband is a good, caring man to both myself and our 5-year-old son. The thing is I can't stop thinking of this ever since I knew a few weeks ago. My husband has noticed that I, sometimes, act differently and he has mentioned it. I really don't know what to do about this. HELP, PLEASE.


ANSWER


If I were you, I would speak with your husband about the engagement that he had with other person for some years ago, I would ask who was this person and why did that.
I would ask too if he doesn´t feel good whith you, in other words if he feel some vacuum whith you, as he was not enougth with your relation.
I would say him  thanks for be a good husband and a good dad but your pride  it´s the first. He would to find other person and she will love him and your relation just as friends.
