Hi,

My husband and I were together quite happily for 15 years until I found out he was having an affair with a very close mutual friend. It is clear that she pursued him as much as he pursued her, all the while hiding their relationship from me in our daily conversations (and preiodically taunting my ignorance). I am wondering what you can tell me about something called “alienation of affection”.

Thank you for providing this service.  
Sandra
