Carl,

For what's it's worth. My wife left me in
September. I met a married woman who wanted to leave her husband. We started a friendship that lasted several months. Eventually she became attached to me and the relationship turned sexual. Anyway, I told her that I was still in love with my wife and couldn't return the emotion she expected. I also told her that her love for her husband could return. About a month and a half ago she and her husband did get back together. She says she loves him and will continue to work on her marriage. She often said it was over with him and didn't love him anymore. Life is strange. I also met another woman who told me she had the same experience. She left her husband saying she would never get back with him, had an affair, but is back with him. It happens.
