He hasn't been happy with his job - boredom mainly - and he took on a managers role a couple of months ago for the challenge and to make his work more interesting, which has proved quite stressful.
He has started to socialise with colleagues more since taking on the new job. He is going on a golfing trip to Lanzarote next weekend, and has been roady-ing for a colleague's friend's band for a few months. He has encouraged me to start doing more things on my own, so I have. I have joined a line dance club, go swimming and am starting Advanced French classes as soon as I find one to suit.

OK, You said that he didnt have any opportunity to meet another lady but you have just said that he socialises a lot more. How do you know that some of the colleagues arent female? How do you know who is going to Lanzarote?WHo goes out on these social evenings? How about the band, there are bound to be many occasions when there are single women at their concerts and opportunity to talk to them and get to know them.
If it isnt a female, and we dont know, maybe its because he is enjoying the sort of single life that he seems to be living now, and has encouraged you do to more because he feels guilty about leaving you so much. However too much socialising with others without your spouse, especially if some of them are single and/or the opposite sex, is never a good idea, and its led to him leaving.
I still think that there is a possibility that there may be someone else, he wont tell you, cheaters never do. We have had many people come here who denied their spouses were cheating, and their spouses denied it as well, only to find out later that they were. I hope I am wrong, but many affairs begin in the workplace.
