Sounds like an EA to me.

How would you feel if your wife was doing this? Would that be OK?

With those who are dealing with affairs on this board, they also hear "It's nothing, he/she is just helping me through a difficult time."

What if having an EA just confirms for your W that she's making the right choice to leave the marriage.

Does your "lady friend" know she's being used?

I think you're on a slippery slope, my friend.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do.
I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering.
