He did tell me a story about a client he had where he felt that there was an infatuation going on and when he called her on it, she got really freaked out and they couldn't continue. I asked him if he had ever dealt with this before and that was the only other time.
I just feel really strongly that you may be hindering your therapy by not being honest. Of course, it is your decision to make, I just hope you make it based on what kind of therapist you have and not based on fears of his reaction.
I'm so sorry about how things are going for you with your marriage.
