She assured me that our relationship was not threatened but
she wanted to see him again. 
The fact that he shared her academic interest
(studying the same course as her at the same university)
made me feel very threatened indeed.
And there was the "size-does-count" issue.

Living 1000km apart made it especially hard for me to deal with,
so I paid for a plane trip for her to visit and reassure me
*in*person* that our relationship was not threatened.
She couldn't lift me out of the subsequent depression.
What hurt me was that she *wanted* a repeat affair;
It seemed ludicrous to have her promise not to,
so we departed solemnly promising to continue our honesty,
as difficult as it was.
