I met your husband nine years ago.
I was freshly graduated from university and looking for a job in my field of study. I remember it was my very first day in the office when I saw him. He was tall, blonde, had a great smile, kind eyes, and was looking gorgeous in a suit.
I remember seeing the wedding ring and being disappointed but I didn’t really think much beyond that. We worked very closely together during my first few months, but nothing ever really moved beyond surface level conversation between two work colleagues. Why would it?
Watch Sophie Monk talk to Mamamia about cheating. Post continues below.
It was a warm night in summer and we all walked down to the local pub one night after work for drinks.
Your husband and I found our way into a conversation with another and by this stage, we were VERY drunk. He whispered in my ear how attractive he found me and that he wanted to take me home.
I almost fell off my stool in shock, but I was also young, naive, insecure, and drunk… and this attention gave me some kind of validation I was craving at the time.

I’m betting their marriage is over. And you and your actions probably are partially to blame. But I also bet you weren’t the only other woman he carried on with.
"even though I’m sure your marriage is now in a great place"
I doubt it. Once a cheater always a cheater - he's probably had a number of affairs.
Yes, what you did was awful, but I am glad you have grown as a person. His betrayal of his wife was worse, and I highly doubt it stopped with you. I hope she divorced him and found someone else who gives her the love she deserves.
