Rob asked "what part of Tristan's wife's behavior isn't typical WAS behavior?" I think you might also want to be asking yourself, what is atypical of her boyfiend's behavior and the story as you think you know it.
What divorced man pursues a married subordinant coworker for two years for just a little "kissing?" I think he would have become bored with your wife if that was all she was putting out. Is your wife that great on the phone that he would try and convince to leave her marriage for more phone conversation. Think about it.
I think there is alot to this story you do not know about and refuse to see. That said, your wife's behavior is very typical of someone entrenched in a long term affair; the aneixty, the depressive episodes, wavering back and forth, holding info back from the MC, needing space and wanting to move out after she sees the OM, making love to you so you don't become too suspicious. I bet her boyfriend doesnt question if she is bipolar.

Is there much I can do about it?
I say dump her and do it quick. Right now she is enjoying alot of freedom and space. She probably has few worries and knows you are her back up plan. She probably lays in bed at night talking with her boyfriend; And knows if she needs cash or a car you will be there for her, hoping that will win her back. What if she was faced with the dilemma that Tristan no longer cared and no longer wanted to wait around for seconds. She would have alot of concerns and worries and probably would be thinking about you alot more than she is now.

Dating? I can't do it. I would be a horrible date right now anyway.
Why not, I'm not going to tell your wife. And if she did find out it would probably bust up her affair alot quicker than what you have been doing thus far. Find someone else who is a "horrible date right now" also and you can practice on eachother.
