``You are dating my husband, aren't you?'' ``One phone call'' that destroyed the happy days of a 37-year-old woman

Nowadays with the spread of mobile phones, there are more and more cases where people are dating without knowing that the other person is married. From there, she was able to speak to a woman whose life was turbulent.

A senior member of a circle I met by chance...

Mari Tominaga (37 years old, pseudonym = same below), who lives in Tokyo, is Daisuke Tanaka, a senior member of the circle she belonged to when she was a university student. It was five years ago that I met Mr. (39 years old) again. When she was walking towards the Tokaido Shinkansen at Tokyo Station for a business trip, she was suddenly called out to her.

"We weren't particularly close when we were in school, but when we meet in a place like that, I feel a sense of closeness. He also said that he was going to take the Tohoku Shinkansen on a business trip. Next time, He wanted to hold an alumni association as a volunteer, so he asked me to consult with him, so I hurriedly exchanged business cards.”

We met under the guise of a meeting, but I was so absorbed in the conversation that three hours had passed before I knew it. Even if I wanted to talk about the alumni party properly this time, it was just a matter of talking about various things after that. Once, Mari was unable to go to a meeting. It was discovered that the lover she was thinking of marrying had been cheating on her, and she was so shocked that she fell asleep and forgot the meeting.

I think he was worried because I didn't answer the phone. When I opened the door, he said, ``Oh, I'm glad you didn't come to the meeting.

When I said I'm sorry, he said, 'You don't have to worry about it. Contact me if you need anything. I brought something delicious, so I'll put it on,' and left. Taiwanese cuisine was on the doorknob. I was talking about going to Taiwanese food next time, so it seems that he went out of his way to buy it for me. I remember crying while eating food that was still hot."

The distance between me and Daisuke was shortened because of that. The talk of alumni meeting flew somewhere, and I started going to see movies and go to live performances. Before I knew it, we had met four times in ten days.

"When I laughed and said, 'This looks like a lover,' he suddenly took a serious look and said, 'Can I think so?' That day, he stayed in my room for the first time."

Since then, the two have been in contact with each other on a daily basis. Once or twice a week, he stays in Mari's room.

"He lives in his parents' house, and although he is in Tokyo, it is far from his company. So I told him to stay over whenever he got late. I have weekends off, but he works a shift, so weekends aren't always off. Even so, we managed to make time for each other and met often.

About half a year later, he told me that he wanted to marry Mari. However, I wasn't sure if I had really recovered from the shock of my previous relationship, so I said that I wanted to continue dating for another six months. He understood."

After a year of dating, he began to encourage Mari to visit her parents' house. By that time, she had come to trust him completely.
