I'm sorry to say this but I don't think there is anything you *can* do except talk to your husband openly and honestly about how you feel about this. Then it is entirely up to HIM to regulate his friendship with this woman (which, in my opinion has already crossed the boundary into an emotional affair).

when you talk with him you need to decide what are the consequences going to be if his behavior continues to make you feel threatened by this friendship - will you leave him? will you stay married but move out of the house? Will you be very angry and make his life miserable until he complies? Whatever you choose. The point is that there has to be consequences for his unwanted behavior otherwise why would he be motivated to change his behavior? You could also negotiate the other way and say that if he ends his friendship with the other woman to your satisfaction you will "reward" him in some way ...you can get creative here! but it has to be ongoing otherwise he will just fall back into seeing her again in the future.

The point is that he must be internally motivated to end his friendship with her. Either a positive motivation (because he will get something better if he ends that relationship) or a negative one (because something he doesn't want will happen if he continues to see her) but ultimately it has to be HIS choice.

You cannot be driving yourself crazy trying to protect your marriage from this other woman, it has to be your husband's choice and ultimately only he can do it. If he doesn't want to do it, you can't really do anything unless you are going to follow him around 24 hours a day.

Abella agony auntreserve all your angst for your husband. Only He can put a stop to this nonsence on his part. Only He can stop disrespecting you by even allowing this woman into his life. Be dignified about it. No doubt she is trying to woo him with every ounce of flattery and false compliments she can muster.

Ask your husband to act professionally at

work and distance himself from personal communication with this woman. But once outside work this woman has no business contacting him.

it is so easy to get jealous when it comes to this sort of situation, but you want to go about it in a different way.

I tryed this with my boyfriend when we had a similar situation. Instead of telling her to stop messeging , messege her become FRIENDS with her. Become obsessed, she will get really confused and she'll know its not getting to you. The more she knows its getting to you the more she will make an emotional connection. Invite her round your house for a cuppa, this way your involving you into the situation. Hug into your husband when shes around. Watch her reaction , kiss him. You are sure to get a result from this. It worked with me and i havnt ever seen her again :)
