Did I give him good advice? I know a lot of people would have said "do her, your M is done, you deserve a little love" but, for some reason, my family has raised men who believe in doing what's right...and how that sucks sometimes!
You absolutely gave him the right advice! He needs to sort out his current R before entering into any new one, even a one-night-stand. He needs to be able to think with a clear head to resolve the marriage he is in! And for the record, I think that a man who believes in doing the right thing is a real man....not a child like most of the WAH's we hear about here (including mine!)
