Hmmm. Interesting, I don't know about the other people's correspondance, but the points that I wrote about were not verbatim copy and paste from an email - I did not invade H's privacy. (I did not keep the correspondance that I read and at the time I read it in front of H because I had his permission (strangely) so it is just from my memory, just like when I have posted stuff that H said). Also, we are anonymous I was simply trying to demonstrate that the level of depth in the affair relationship is very superficial, which may help some people who are trying to understand how their long term partner with whom a deep relationship had been formed over years could believe that they are in love with someone else because they understand each other's laundry issues (sorry facetious). It does demonstrate the crisis element in all of this. And actually, in some ways it is funny. I often read things on here that I think are in bad taste and they are not always the same as what other people think. I don't know if there is anything illegal about remembering something that your H let you read and telling people. And if talking about what my H has or has not done or said is off limits, then the whole topic of MLC should be off limits. Which I think is a bit OTT.
I actually never did any snooping. To this day, I have never even driven past H's new apartment (well, never knowingly). I did not read his phone without his permission, I have never snooped on his email. To be honest, if I was someone who was more inclined to do these things then maybe I would have found out things about H long before I did and saved myself SOME heartache.
So please, maybe this thread is not helpful, but then neither is the holier than thou, quasi legal argument against it...
