Separated- Wife in Emotional Affair

[shreeve]

I am in very similar situation, but no children are involved. Wife is madly in love with a former boyfriend who was recently divorced. I did read DR and am trying my best to move on, she only told me of the divorce on 12/25/15 and admitted to the affair after I found phone records on 1/10/16. I guess they go through an emotional detachment and then justify the affair with some pretty fuzzy logic.

It hurts a lot, don't know for how long, but I still have trouble sleeping and assume it will continue for months. I just try to exercise, eat right, and stay busy with friends / conversation / cleaning / organizing house. It's a long road ahead but you can make it a positive outcome by focusing on YOU.
