So though I had repeatedly reminded him he needed to set better boundaries (he was, until the affair, completely open and honest about when women would approach him on the road and how he handled the situation), my concerns were always dismissed. We both waited for marriage to have sex, he was very haughty and would take offense at the idea that he would ever cheat on me - cheating is very common in our unit. I have always been the higher-drive spouse, so it wasn’t because I was refusing him. To make it even more painful, I was seven months’ pregnant at the time of the affair. The only contact he had after (she apparently gave him her number) was to ensure she was not pregnant. There is no porn issue, it was not something he sought after, it was not an affair involving social media. He is in the military, and frequently gone, sometimes for extended periods of time. My husband confessed to me this summer that he had a one-night stand while he was traveling for work.
