Hello and sorry to say "Welcome". I read your journal entry and I can somewhat see how your wife is behaving because she sounds a lot like my best friend. Your situation is very similar. The main difference is that my best friend and her husband communicated the boundaries of their dating, so it really became like an open marriage, which was a very bad idea and extremely hurtful. They are back together and piecing as she decided to get counseling.
Have you or your wife attended therapy. I know DB can say that therapy can hurt, but it really helped my friends see how their pasts affect their current situation.
You keep on cycling and doing things for your health and happiness. Keep on journaling. Stay positive for your daughter's sake. Your wife is not crazy. Sometimes women do have a MLC and want to feel alive in selfish ways. Hopefully, she will realize it, but she may not.
The hardest thing is wondering if we should wait or give up and move on. If we are not interested in dating, it makes us stay in limbo land. I agree with you. I am not ready to date or even think about anyone new right now. Yuck.
