I’m planning to use my wife’s long ago affair as an excuse to leave her for another woman.
I already feel super guilty about it but it’s been 3 years since her affair ended. In the last 6 months, the woman that could be considered “the one that got away,” came back into my life and has admitted that if my wife ever cheats again then she wants another chance with me.
She has stated that she will only respect the marriage but she felt like she needed to let me know.
Oddly enough I had been having many recurring dreams about her prior to us reconnecting. I haven’t done anything other than text or call this other woman, but my heart absolutely knows this is what I want.
I have no children of my own, so it makes thing a little easier, but the sense of guilt is still there.
I know it will devastate my wife, but things have not been the same since her affair and we both know it. Prior to marrying my wife I had a chance with this other woman to try again but I told her no due to me already planning the engagement.
Both of us have wondered “what if,” ever since. I’m scared, excited and I also feel like a horrible person know that this will devastate someone I planned a life and future with.
