Thank you, Zencat. I'm glad you have the same understanding about how these types of relationships. I am just going with my gut at this point that whatever feelings they may have developed for each other during rehab are bound to fizzle out now that they're "back in the real world." My husband is an extremely intelligent man, which is why I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt that he, too, will realize that the boudaries that were crossed by him during that time were just a mistake. I would hate to throw away an otherwise fantastic 15-year relationship based solely on a decision he made while he was not of sound mind, to put it mildly. My husband was also not a cheater before he went into rehab, which is another reason why I have chosen to trust him. As a matter of fact, I feel better and better about that decision every day. We just spent the entire weekend together and had some really great talks. I am very optimistic.
