Sean, a 36-year-old married for 15 years, confessed to his wife about a brief affair with a client, expecting anger and pain but hoping for reconciliation. Initially, his wife, Rosa, was devastated and distanced herself, asking Sean to move out temporarily. However, weeks later, she unexpectedly invited him back, seemingly forgiving him and making efforts to rekindle their relationship.
Sean’s relief turned to shock when Rosa revealed she was pregnant—but not with his child. She admitted to having an affair after his betrayal, framing it as “fair” revenge. Rosa suggested they stay together and even offered Sean the option to adopt the child, claiming she had cut ties with the child’s biological father.Now, Sean is torn between feelings of guilt, betrayal, and confusion. Unsure whether his wife’s actions stem from retaliation or genuine feelings, he seeks advice on whether to salvage their marriage or move on from the devastating chain of events.
