I HAVE A PROBLEM

About 6 months ago i became arrogant and was always right and extremely snappy to my wifeher friends and mine so much so that she went away for a few days to stay at a friends.
When she came back she said it was over but that same day she decided to make a go of it but she wanted a trial seperation.
A week l8r she decided she didn't want to leave and still wanted to make a go of it.
While she was at her friends i realised myself what i had been like and have consequently changed and improved and i am not like that anymore. 5 weeks ago she came upto me to say she had feelings for some one else but i have since found out she knew about 3 months ago she is 38 yrs old but is supposed to be going out with a 24 yr old who has the mental age of a 14 yr old which was told to me by his uncle because this young lad lives a few doors down from his aunt and uncle and is round there every day as his PC is at thiers. He lives in Scunthorpe but we live in Norfolk and my wife does not hav a car and does not have much money. She is continously txting him and he is her and ringing each other up. She is not living with me but ha contact with our children. When they talk on the phone they talk like friends other people have witnessed this themselves.I have also found out that her family are gently trying to persuade her where her bread is buttered as they know she still loves me and still cares but we are trying to rebuild the trust and respect up that we have lost. I will also say that at the time she found out about this lad i was not paying her much attention and he was as we spent a lot of time on our PC's. Everyone around me and her family have all said that at the moment they think it's a midlife crisis and that she is trying to capture her youth again. Please help me in this matter are they right. If you need anymore information please contact me on my e-mail account. Thank you.

Welcome to A2K.

Question:

How do you know that your wife's male friend is mentally/emotionally retarded?

it does say in the post bud it was actually his uncle who told me himself as the young lad is around there all the time and his uncles wife agreed with it. so i can safely say it's true as they have known him for a long time being that he is family.

What appeal does a severely retarded man have for your wife?

How old are your children?

You acknowledge that you treated your wife (and others) in an arrogant and impatient manner. It's probably been a very long time since anyone made your wife feel important or special.

Apparently, this young man is currently meeting your wife's unmet emotional needs for attention, admiration, and conversation. He listens to her, empathizes with her feelings, and makes her feel good about herself.

She's searching for happiness--and she's not going to find it in her marriage with you unless the two of you start over from scratch and begin to build a better marriage.

For the tools to build a better marriage, I suggest that you examine the articles on the marriage builder's website:

I don't know how you have any problems.

You're a ninja.

No problem.

Six kids with the oldest only 13? Your wife is escaping from responsibility in a big way--although by your admission she may have carried more than her share of family responsibility over the years.

If I were in your position, I'd try courting her all over again with all the charm you can muster. Right now she's having a fling without responsibility, but she loves her kids and is trying to stay in touch with them.

Turn on the charm, Ninja. Turn on the charm.
