Lots go through this, we think the grass is greener on the other side butit seldom is. Talk to your wife, tell her how you are feeling. See If you can't be happy again with your wife.
Good luck

Are you a fool for having those feelings or thoughts? No. Would you be a fool for acting on them and cheating on your wife? Yes.
This is the commitment you made all those years ago, my friend.

I'm sure once upon a time your wife and you laughed at jokes together, slept together and such. You're making a mistake if you go onto have an affair. I think you need to step back and look at your marriage. Can it be fixed and are both you and your wife interested in even keeping it fixed? If it can be fixed, then put all the effort into you marriage. If it can be fixed, then end the marriage and focus on getting your own life back together before you move on with another woman. But don't make the mistake of leaving one woman for another.
