For the first time in my relationship with my wife, I was insecure about the feelings she has towards me. It all started out to be a nice evening in another city where we were going to watch the Blue Man Group. The next day, we were invited at my Dad’s place to celebrate his 78th birthday. Both events were taking place in the same city. But instead of going home together after the Blue Man Group’s performance, my wife suggested that she could stay in Basel overnight to not having to go back home for just the night and coming back the next day.
No problem for me so far. But this would have meant that I would have had to go back home alone. Sara doesn’t know anyone there where she could have stayed overnight. At least that’s what I thought. Asking her once more for the reasons about her idea, she replied “short vacation at the hotel”. I didn’t feel very comfortable with this reply and pressed her for a reason, but she couldn’t explain it to me to the full extent (at least in no way which would have got me confident again).
It is very unusual for her to stay away from me overnight, plus: in a city where she has no relationship to. Then, talking about “*I* could stay there overnight” instead of “Why don’t *we* stay there?”. Asking her numerous times about her reason (still have no other answer rather than “I know it was a stupid, yet spontaneous idea for us two”), I more and more get the impression that se planned to cheat on me. I mean, what else should I think about this whole situation? At this point, my feelings towards her have cooled down quite a bit. Not only because of the possible fact about the cheating on me, but mainly because she seemed to want to get rid of me for the night, not thinking about me having to go back home on my own while she was about to do whatever heaven forbid… Dunno
