Helen, 37, is seven months pregnant and feels her life is falling apart. After years of believing she was in a loving marriage, she noticed her husband Jason forming an unusually close bond with a female coworker. He works mostly with women, but this one colleague suddenly became special — and everything shifted once Helen became pregnant, especially since Jason never wanted kids.

Jason began treating Helen coldly, even saying he’d fallen out of love and had been unhappy for years. Meanwhile, he showered his colleague with attention and gifts, publicly praising her while ignoring his wife. Helen discovered he helped pick out her wedding outfit, sent her personalized gifts secretly, shared his location with her but refused Helen, and even befriended the colleague’s mother and brought her into their family’s social circle. When Helen expressed discomfort, rather than reassure her, Jason told her to “get over it.”

The emotional hurt only deepened when the colleague blocked Helen online, yet continued constant communication with Jason and even his family. Helen feels alone, betrayed, and humiliated, questioning whether she’s overreacting — but also feeling something deeply wrong is happening. She never imagined facing such behavior while carrying their child and facing motherhood without emotional support from her spouse.

Now, Helen stands at a painful crossroads. Her husband insists nothing is going on, yet every action suggests emotional infidelity at the very least. She’s asking if she should trust her instincts, confront him more firmly, or walk away to protect herself and her baby. She wonders what others would do in her place — because right now, she feels abandoned when she needs love the most.
