The Price of a Secrets

…and the price of a previous affair

Is she suspicous of his "possible" affair because she had one previously?

Dear Dr. Bob,

My husband seems on the up and up that he is not having an affair. I have had an affair before. could this be the reason i am feeling like he is cheating?
