Hello Therapist: We are dating for 11 years but since the lockdown, he feels distant; Is he having an affair?

Hello Therapist,

I am a 30-year-old woman and have been dating my boyfriend for the last 11 years. Initially, our parents opposed our relationship but now they have accepted. However, during the lockdown, I saw a change in my boyfriend’s behaviour. We didn’t meet for 4 months and now I feel he is having an affair. Should I confront him?

Hello Pinkvilla Reader, 

It’s easy to assume things because of lack of communication. Keep observing him for a few days more. You should definitely talk it over but with a calm and non-accusatory tone. There could be many more reasons for his change in behaviour. Follow your instincts but keep a neutral tone.
