I had an affair with a man unlike any other man I met on Ashley Madison. It was a very strong emotional, mental and physical connection.

My husband found his phone number and called him threatening him. My lover broke it off. We are both married with young children, neither of us wants to disrupt that, but why won't he see me? I am still in the fog I guess, the emotions of this were so strong. I think he is scared. I need advice. I want to see him again but only if it's safe. Think he will ever come back to me? I sent emails he actually called me a stalker then he said I'm a good person and he really means that. So confused... help!! He even told me to go find someone else, that it would make him happy if I could move on from this. What do you think? Oh by the way I stupidly tried to see someone else, it was nothing like what I had with him. I don't believe I can ever get physically intimate with another man after him. He has ruined me for any other man, I am serious!!

It seems that your AP has come to his senses.

That's advice??

"The fog" will certainly play with your head!

 

Your husband contacting him probably did scare him. I'd leave him alone, if he wants to reach out he will. Try talking things out with your husband, see if the marriage is salvageable!

My advice for you is to accept reality.

 

The affair is over, and he sees you as a stalker.

Hopefully he meant for her to divorce first and then find someone else, not to just find another AP...

He doesn't know for sure I was having an affair. I never told him, he just guessed.

Really so flippant an answer....

If he's suspicious at all then you should either come clean or stsy away from the other man. I know it's hard and he's all you're thinking about right now but trying to find another AP will only make things worse..

How will it make things worse?

It's not. It's the more caring thing for him to suggest, rather than that you find another AP. If he suggested, given the situation, that you find another AP, then that would suggest to me that he is also just going to find another AP. Now that would be uncaring.

Just bullet points here.

 

  • He broke it off
  • He doesn't want to disrupt his marriage
  • He called you a stalker
  • He told you to find someone else
  • He told you it would make him happy if you'd move on

 

What would you tell me if I posted that list?

What I had with him was very special. I really miss him. It was far more than making love..

Because then you're not just cheating with one person but with more than one. I know I feel/felt guilty enough just with one, I can't imagine cheating with multiple people. Also, it's going to confuse your feelings and make you feel worse. I promise, it's not worth it to chase that high.

It would make things worse with your husband for sure....

You've asked about this before. Your affair has been over for a year and MM is over it. I know it's hard but you are going to have to face reality that he doesn't want you or nothing would stop him from being with you. Why don't you try to get over it instead of continually dwelling on it? He isn't scared to be with you he is no longer interested in being with you. Spend time trying to refurbish your marriage or consider a divorce.

He doesn't want me or he is scared of my husband? Big difference!

It was special to you but not so much to him or he'd want to continue with you.

Even with threats not so sure...

We don't know the answer to that. We can't read his mind, but you would be kinder to yourself to think that he did still want you but is scared of your husband. It's perfectly ok for you to think that, but even if that's the case, you still have to accept that it's over (he wants it to be) and not ever contact the man again. Ever.

Guessing you are either not married, really young and/ or never had an affair....

This, absolutely.

 

And a year? Gently, have you ever tried some outside intervention to try and get over this better? You seem stuck.

He called me a stalker because I made another profile on AM to see if he would talk to another woman!! How far he would go...
