I have also been married for 35 years and a woman wanting and having a sexual relationship with 28 year old married man is she is having a mid life crisis. A man sometimes looks and fantasizes about a younger woman that reminds him of his wife when she was younger. It is the same thing for a woman when she has an affair with a much younger man.Will you be able to get over this? That is up to you as it isn't a question for anyone but you.She has been lying to you and until she comes clean and tells you she wants to save her marriage you are in limbo. Another issue to consider is this guy's sexual prowess. If he sends her over the top and makes her cum she will have a hard time staying away from him. Anyway you look at it your marriage is in serious trouble. Since this is November and this happened in April, please give us an update on your situation.

Your not over the hill yet my friend!! 52 is not that old. I have no doubt you would find someone around the same age as you to spend the rest of your life with who would be faithful! Jeez i can thik of around 10 women I know already! LOL
However, If you really want to make things work then time apart is needed, make her realise that your not going to be taken for granted. I doubt her 28year old lover will stick around for 20 years. Its a long time to give up, but don't you think you are worthy of a wife who will be honest with you and only be with you?
Maybe your wife is going through a mid life thing? Try talking to her or getting her some help....
I wish you the best of luck

Anon,
The two of you need some time apart asnd to get some professional help. Playing games of he said she said are going to be counter productive as you have children to worry about. Seek help and make a decision on your future for all concerned.

I don't think there will be anyway you will be able to reason with her, she sounds out of control. The more you attempt to help her or the marriage, I think you will end up destroying yourself.
You need to confront her, tell her how you feel betryaed, how she has broken the trust between you two, and that as long as she hides from the truth, won't talk to you but lie, then the marriage is over.
Guys will screw anything, especially a married woman, for they don't have to worry if she gets pregnant, it is the husbands problem. Women don't understand this, and there actions can devestate a man, such as yourself.
The other thing, is that all this time, she may have felt neglected, no romance, no sex, and now, she may have PMS, which plays games with the head.

reader, anonymous, writes (22 April 2008): OMG. I feel so sorry for you. I've been cheated on too, but only by my bf of 2 years. Just like you, I couldn't believe it was possible, but it happened. You need time apart. Should you decide to forgive her, she should realize her mistake, regret it and promise never to do it again. Don't take her back until she learns from her mistake. On the other hand, you can leave her, as it is not the first time she cheated on you. She cheats, she gets caught. It becomes a cycle. And it gives you pain you don't deserve. If it seems as though she never acknowledges her mistakes and doesn't seem to regret it, then I would have second thoughts of taking her back.

The first poster is dead on! Its so frustrating how someone, especially her age, could still act so childish. It would raise all sorts of questions in my head, like if she had been faithful the entire time? Did the other guy give her something that I could never have given her? The insecurities she is placing into your life is unhealthy and something that could stress you to the point that it is knocking years off your life! You probably love your wife, more than anything or anyone could ever imagine, and you probably can not see yourself without her... But, after this, do you honestly think that you could ever look at her the same again? Its not like she made a mistake once, and then learned from it. No... She is intentionally fucking other guys behind your back.This morning on the radio I heard a survey that some college had released on cheating. It says that people can cheat on you, and still love you... So, it may not mean that she does not love you, but she is not satisfied with your relationship. After 20 years of being with her, if she can not bring herself to speak her mind about the marriage then there is nothing really that can be done without some type of outside help/counseling. Waiting it out, talking, etc may not be enough to fix this problem. And like I said, its not like it had happened once, but multiple times. So just think about that. It was not an accident, it was intentional.And, do not think that you can not start again, love comes in all ages! Be strong, and hopefully you will fly right through this mess.

reader, anonymous, writes (22 April 2008): It sound to me like your wife has been basically stuck in the house for years. (not your fault) and that she probably did not feel like a person. What I mean by that is she was the wife, the caregiver, the mom, but she probably didn't feel like just a woman an individual. She went out into the world and started getting attention. Attention she didn't think she could get anymore. To her surprise she was still desired by other men. Istead of just feeling flatterd she acted on her childish butterflies and did the wrong thing. I'm sure you gave her attention too, but as couples get comfortable especiall after 20 years they don't get the butterflies anymore and she probably missed them. We all do. However her behavior is wrong and she is tearing apart the family. I gaurantee that if you left her she would be devistated and you playing hard to get and not letting her know what you are doing with your day to day she will get butterflies for you again and she will want you back. The key is is to not give in right away. Make her suffer by your distance. Don't be a mean jerk, but be very advasive about your life while you are seperated. IT will drive her crazy probably to the point that when you do get back together she will never want to go through losing you again. She has forgotten all those feelings she used to have with you and if she can get them back your marriage will be better. But you must decide in the end if you can truley forgive her because if you cannot then it will never work. Just leave for awhile making no promises. Just tell her you don't know what you want and leave and stay w/ friends or a relative for awhile. She won't find it so fun to cheat when she thinks no body knows. Good luck. PS. Just tell the kids you have to stay with someone who needs your help right now. Don't involve them in any of this. THis to will shock her for how mature you are.
