I’m worried my husband’s cheating as he keeps messaging his former colleague
DEAR DEIDRE: MY husband’s unusual desire to keep in touch with his former colleague is making me suspicious.
She only worked at his company for a few months, but when she left, my hubby insisted she kept in touch.

And I’ve since seen her number on his phone call list.
We’ve been married for 20 years. I’m 45 and he’s 48. His ex-colleague is younger, and I don’t know her marital status.

I have no evidence that he’s been cheating on me, or that she’s even interested. But I don’t understand why he seems to care so much about staying in touch.
Usually when one of his colleagues leaves, he just says goodbye and good luck.

DEIDRE SAYS: Don’t jump to conclusions.
Perhaps they got on well as friends, or maybe she’s useful for contacts and networking.
I wonder if you’re insecure because you’ve been cheated on in the past, or if you’re feeling unhappy in the marriage.
You need to talk to your husband. Tell him you want to make the relationship as good as possible.
