Dear Aunty Lisa,
I hope this missive finds you well. Something has been weighing heavily on my mind lately and I was hoping you could offer me some advice. I recently discovered that my wife has a secret child that she never told me about. Apparently, she had the child before we met, and she gave it up for adoption. I had no idea that this had ever happened, and I feel hurt and betrayed that my wife kept such a big secret from me.
I don’t know what to do or how to feel about this. On the one hand, I understand that my wife’s past is her own business and she has a right to her privacy. But on the other hand, I feel like this is something that I should have been told about before we got married. I don’t know if I can trust my wife anymore, and I’m worried that there might be other secrets that she’s keeping from me.
What should I do, Aunty Lisa? How can I come to terms with this revelation and move forward in my marriage?
Sincerely,
Joe
