On the evening of our second wedding anniversary, my husband Andrew texted to say he was stuck at work and promised to make it up to me another weekend. Wanting to surprise him, I brought the vintage silver watch he had admired and
went to a restaurant downtown. Instead of finding him working late, I saw him sharing an intimate dinner with another woman. They laughed, held hands, and kissed as though our marriage didn’t exist. Frozen in shock, I realized everything I believed about our relationship had just collapsed before my eyes.
