Dear Fonseca,
My husband has become friends with a co-worker, who has gotten him into gaming. I never thought I would be married to a ' 34-year-old teenager'. The other night, I caught my husband playing an online game with a woman. This led to a fight between us. He says there is nothing wrong with him gaming with this woman or any other. I disagree and don't think he should be socializing with other women because he is married. I'd like to hear from other married women about this. It almost seems like a form of cheating. There's no reason he should be up gaming and giggling with another woman at 1:00 a.m. Am I over the line or is he?
