Dear Abby: Recently my husband, "Byron," and I had an argument, and he took off in his truck. He didn't return until after work the following day. He had spent the night at our friend "Arlene's" house. She is divorced and lives alone.

Byron assures me "nothing happened" between them. I want to believe him, but ever since this incident, Arlene will not look me in the eye or speak to me.

I love Byron and trusted him until now. It hurts to think that our marriage may be ruined over a stupid argument. I know he was intoxicated, but why did he choose to go to HER home? – Broken-Hearted in Wyoming
