emotional infidelity on cruise

Warning...warning...my husband went on the transatlantic journey from NY to London on the QE2. He had a wonderful time, but he met this woman on board who now calls our home and hangs up so she doesn't have to leave a message for me to hear. I've run a trace on the number and the person lives in Mass. Her name? I will gladly share that information with whoever asks. I think that she is a regular QE2 traveler.

I was so excited for my husband because I knew he had always wanted to cross the Atlantic by ship. Even though I was a little disappointed in him for taking such a wonderful trip without me, I tried to be selfless. I was hurt. I had to work. He arrived in Spain, where I was working, depressed. Now I suspect that it is because he missed all the attention that woman gave him. I imagine that it is a very romantic journey to spend with someone special.

I regret being so supportive of my husband's desire to make that trip alone. I just cancelled our 5th anniversary cruise, which he said he so much wanted to take, because he cannot afford it financially because of the money he spent this summer.

I can't help but think how unfair it all is...I am sorry to bring in this downer to you because everyone is always so happy here! Please learn from my mistake...do not let your spouse travel alone on such a romantic trip without you. It will end your marriage and hurt someone very much.

Sadly, Patience

Infidelity can happen anywhere so don't blame his behavior on the cruise. I do believe that people tend to let their guard down on vacation! I would let him take ALL his vacations alone from now on! BON VOYAGE!!
