Husband told to 'live with' wife's affair with a man who served time for murder
A husband says his wife is seeing an old high‑school flame recently released after serving time for murder, and she refuses to end contact even at the risk of divorce.
DEAR ABBY: My wife is having an affair with an old flame from when she was in high school. He was just released from prison after serving time for murder. I have forgiven her, but I told her to stop the contact.
She said she’d rather divorce me than do that; I would have to live with what’s going on. I love my wife, so I compromise for now.
