My wife has told me she has feelings for another man. What should I do and say?

[mugglesam]

Recently I've recognized that my wife had been acting differently. She finally admitted that she has feelings for another man that I don't know. What would you do in this situation?

Having feelings for someone, and acting on it, are two different things. Odds are this is just a temporary feeling.

I used to work with a guy who was married, and for some reason he started to develop feelings for the office manager at work. (I found all this out from the office manager after he left the job and moved across the country.) She said the he called her at home once on a Saturday and asked if he could come over because he had something to discuss with her. When he showed up, he mentioned that he "felt more for her than just a working relationship", and all this. She politely told him that their relationship was nothing more than a working relationship and she was married anyway! Then he said he'd just have to accept it, and maybe talk it over with his wife. (I have no idea whether or not he talked it over with his wife.) This was many years ago, and he is definitely still married and now has two kids in college.

Anyway, sometimes feelings are just that. I'd keep discussing it with your wife and if you feel you need a counselor, by all means don't hesitate to see one.

We can’t control how we feel about people, we can only control what we do about it.

You’re married. It’s not so simple to walk away.
You need to decide together whether this is something you can work out.
Having feelings for someone else doesn’t mean she wants to leave you.
These things happen sometimes when people have been together for a long time.
She needs to be open completely open with you about what she wants to happen in your marriage, or with this man, and you need to be equally as open about how you feel about it and where your trust in her lies at this point.
Maybe even see a marriage counsellor if you both feel like your marriage is worth fighting for.

Did you ask her what she wants to do? At the same time, you should have your own plans what to do before she says anything.
think about what she has to say… don’t talk or make any final decisions the next few days.. clear your mind… then resume to conclude the next steps.
we can’t make that decision for you.

What to Do If You Think Your Partner Has Feelings for Someone Else?

It can be difficult to tell whether your partner has developed feelings for someone else. However, there are some signs that may indicate that your partner is interested in someone else.

If you think your partner has feelings for someone else, here are some things you can do:

1. Talk to your partner about your concerns.

It’s important to communicate with your partner about your feelings and suspicions. If you’re feeling insecure or jealous, tell your partner how you feel. Talking openly about your feelings can help to build trust and closeness in your relationship.

2. Pay attention to your partner’s behavior.

If you think your partner may be interested in someone else, pay attention to their behavior. Do they seem more distant or preoccupied than usual? Are they spending more time with someone else? Have they been dressing up more or paying more attention to their appearance?

3. Ask your partner directly if they have feelings for someone else.

If you’re not sure whether your partner has developed feelings for someone else, you may want to ask them directly. This can be a difficult conversation to have, but it’s important, to be honest with each other in order to build trust.

4. Agree on a plan to address your concerns.

Once you’ve talked about your concerns with your partner, it’s important to agree on a plan to address them. This may involve spending more time together, communicating more often, or attending counseling together.

5. Seek professional help.

If you’re struggling to communicate with your partner or address your concerns, you may want to seek professional help. Counseling can be a great way to improve communication and work through issues in your relationship.

Why would a married woman fall in love with another man?

There are many reasons why a married woman might fall in love with another man.

It could be that she feels neglected by her husband and is looking for attention. It could be that she is bored with her marriage and is looking for excitement.

It could be that she has never been truly in love with her husband and is now finally realizing it.

Whatever the reason, it is not an uncommon situation. Of course, there are also many reasons why a married woman might not fall in love with another man. She may be perfectly happy with her husband. She may be committed to her marriage and unwilling to cheat. She may not be attracted to other men.

Whatever the reason, there are just as many women who stay faithful to their husbands as there are those who cheat.

The bottom line is that there are many different reasons why a married woman might fall in love with another man. There is no one answer that fits all women. Each situation is unique and must be evaluated on its own merits.

Do you have children with your wife?

[grega239]

Leave. You're married. so why is she getting emotionally involved with someone else.

So both of you go your own way. That way she won't be miserable and you won't have to wonder if she's cheating

[Cutea]

this might be temporary, if you know how to keep her interested with you she will come back

[FreyaRed]

I think you don't have any other option than to let her go.

[r4nd0mus3r]

you should hand her divorce papers and never look back

It is hard, I know, but it is time to let her go and move on with your life. ☹️
