Hi Cloudnine I agree with Johanna. You are doing all the right things. Your wife will choose you over that creep or she would not have said so right away like that. It's good you are going to see a therapist but you can also talk to her about your feelings if you do so sensitively. I think she will understand you need some more reassurance if you say so. Why not ask her if you two could spend some more time together.
