i.e. Frank Pittman, "An affair with someone grossly inappropriate--...someone with problems even bigger than your own-is so crazily stimulating that it's like a drug that can lift you out of your depression and enable you to feel things again."

The OP with my W is a loser. He was divcorced himself 2 years ago, 2nd time, and is still going to court battling his ex. It is amazing the psychology behind this.
