Advice

I don't have people I can talk to about my issues so you guys are it. This one is to do with the lovely young man I met a few months ago. We only had a short time together but I felt a connection, nothing sexual whatsoever. I kept in contact with him via a private messaging app, I did most of the contacting as he is busy working & could only respond when he could. My husband discovered the conversations & I did not know he knew until a week after he found them. In that time he had taken legal action against this guy & his employer, I was horiified as my husband had not come to me first, I didn't get a chance to put voice forward & he jumped to a few conclusions. My husband has been good with me, not angry although he probably doesn't want to upset me cause of my anxiety. I am starting to find my voice & stand up to him. I can see with this situation that I am in the wrong & take full blame for what has happened. I've asked a couple of times for him to drop the legal action against the other party. He said he is just going to leave it. For the first time in my life I feel I am going to stand my ground on this. I will not let it go further as I am the only one to blame, the other party did nothing wrong & my husband should have come to me first rather than doing what he did. Is there a way I can encourage him to drop the action as it's not fair on anyone to have this hanging. Your opinions.
