What makes me think I can keep this up esp my marriage under false pretenses. That it wasn't fair of me to do that to my H.
I'm not going to say there's zero judgment in those statements (assuming they're pretty close to verbatim and not interpretations) and at the same time, I do think you're overstating the judgment. It seems more like she's worried about you and concerned for how this is all going to turn out because she cares about what happens to you.

I don't see any of those as calling you a slut or a piece of trash. The closest I can see as a judgment would be that she thinks you might not be making a healthy decision for yourself or your family. That's a far cry from treating you as Hester Prynne.
