My wife and I have been in our relationship for 18 years. Just recently she connected on Facebook with an old highschool friend. She has been dealing with some emotional issues for some time and this friend was a good sounding board. When he revealed that he had feelings for her, it was if she was thrown a life line and she has decided to leave me. My big dilemma besides the emotional pain is that we have decided that we need to stay together for financial reasons until we can make renovations on our house and sell it for a profit. If I could I would leave today but I also need that money to move on. As she continues to build on her new relationship, the conflicts keep interefering with my ability to move onto an emotional phase that sees her now as just a friend and roommate. I could use some good advice . Thanks
