the world according to crazy.

A little over a week ago, a friend from college who I have not seen nor heard from in 10 years, shows up on my door step and professes her love of me. She is beautiful and very attractive, and in college, I never thought I had a chance to be with her, so I never took the chance. She graduated with her degree in the Fall and I graduate in the Spring. We knew each other because we had the same schedule due to upper classes in our degree. I was in a relationship, that is now my marriage, and she is currently married. Before i got married, had there been an interest that would have blossomed, I would have terminated my relationship back then, and pursued a much more equally determined relationship. However, I chalked up my interest as mere infatuation with the unattainable, filed the memories in the the part of the mind you use for fuel, to tell yourself, that never again will anything be unattainable, and plowed forward. I went on, got married, fought on to get my doctorate degree, and I’m running my practice, i have a son and one son due in no time at all. my wife and separate a couple of years ago, due to her being cruel to me, and things she would say, one of which was that she wasn’t sure whether she loved me anymore.
After almost of year of separation, we returned to married life, and a happy accident occurred resulting in a very near future visit from the stork. The problem I’m having is very strange, or stupid, but I in a dilemma, I have a wife that has reverted back to lack of love for me, I am more of a meal ticket and security blanket, and a woman that I myself have always considered to be unattainable, and used as a driving force as to why I’m now somewhat successful, who is professing her overwhelming desire to be with me. She is also currently married, to a man she claims ignores her on all levels. My infatuation confronts my reality completely out of blue. Suggestions? I don’t judge, so don’t judge me. serious help needed

You are in a tough situation. I does sound like your marriage is in trouble and it has nothing to do with this other women. Do you think their is hope for your marriage? Because you have a child and one on the way. If your marriage can be saved, that is what would be best for everyone. Have you tried marriage counciling?

If you have and still do not think this marriage is going to work, then and only then should you pursue anything further with this other women. If the other woman is not in the picture, would you still want to leave your wife? Because as of now the other woman is still married. What if she chooses to stay married?

Wow..this is a crazy situation to be stuck in. It seems like a test. Would you really want to stop everything that’s happening right now to go to the other woman? And be careful if she tells you she’s leaving her husband…alot of people say those things..but hold them off as long as possible. Then you’d be stuck alone, and she would still have someone to go home to. I know that shouldn’t be the only reason to stay with your wife and family..but I read that you said things were getting better again..and now you guys have a baby on the way. But at the end, you mentioned the wife did revert back to her old ways…did she really? Or does it seem that way now that you have a new seemingly wonderful option? Beee careful! I know you are, but you don’t want to end up alone after all of this.

I think you should give your marriage another chance. Having a baby creates much love so maybe when the baby is born, you’ll both be loving each other better. I think its better for the kids if they have a family intact.

As to your friend in college, do you really love her? Figure that out first before you jump into a relationship with her. But bottom line, give your marraige another shot.
