When I look at things rationally, my chances are pretty darn good. I would have the benefit of experience, more confidence, and a better sense of self, which could only help in selecting a more compatible mate.
I've lost 35 pounds and I'm in the best shape I've been since college. I've been getting all kinds of female attention at work. When a muy caliente Latina co-worker, a woman I considered out of my league a year ago, flirted with me in the break room for no particular reason, it made me feel just a bit better about my sitch.
I hate thinking about my marriage in that way, thinking that I should be considering better offers, but that's reality. We're steeped in the idea that marriage is supposed to be forever, but the truth is that sometimes relationships don't withstand our evolution as people. I know rationally that there are sure to be women out there with whom I would be happier, just as I know there are men other than me that she would find more compatible. I'm sure me finding someone that made me happy would take the edge of the idea of her being with someone else. I certainly wouldn't want to deny her happiness.
But...
I love my W. She's the only woman I've been with since I was 21 years old. She's my family, the mother of my children. Despite her behavior the last few months she's a wonderful person. She's a sexy, smart, funny woman in her own right. Why should I want more?
