Question: 

My husband’s affair partner is a work colleague. I have noticed that she is reaching out via text after I made it clear that it should only be on work email. She is also reaching out for his help on projects that are not imperative to his job. I have expressed my concerns about his boundaries not being solid. My husband has expressed that he doesn’t want to cause issues at work by refusing to help or making a big deal about texting. He is afraid it will draw attention to there being attention. How can I get him to understand how important it is to hold solid boundaries?
