If I can give some advice, keep dating your wife, each week for example. Not just to heal your issue but to keep building and nurturing your marriage. Although temptations are normal part of life, they are however more likely to occur when your marriage needs more care. I don't mean that you don't care it or neglect, but sometimes doing better than good is a goal to set. Keep connecting with your wife, talk and listen to her. Share passions, hobbies, set goals with your wife (it can be something fun like learning a new language or skill, visit a place, make genealogy, etc).
Also when you go to work, just come here for work and only for work. Its okay and fair to put distances with coworkers sometimes (yet still being positive and cooperative). When you're back home, turn off business phone and emails.
Maybe you already do some or all of this. But these can make a real difference.
You may also want to read "the seven principles for making marriage work" by John Gottman PhD, or "8 dates" from the same author.
Also please consider consulting a marriage counselor/therapist and talk openly to the professional. This resource is by many people and couples too often underestimated or used in "most severe" challenges.
Hope that helps.
