You don't give me much detail, so the advice I am giving you is based upon assumptions...
Has she made any move to get a divorce? I'm not talking about whether she has said she will leave her husband for you, what I mean is, has she actually done something like file for a divorce?
If she hasn't, then chances are she won't leave him for you.
Do you think that what youa re doing is morally correct?
I know love doesn't have any rules, but do yu really want to build your happiness on someone elses unhappiness? What about the hurt you will be causing the husband? How long have they been married? Are there children involved?
Put yourself in his shoes... How would you feel if you found out your wife had been cheating on you?
Even worse, if there are children involved, chances are even more slim, that she will leave her husband for you.
So my final advice is this:
Relationships with a married person rarely ever works in the long run, and even more so when there is a huge age gap like yours.
Can you picture yourselves together, and happy 20 years from now?
You have unfortunately landed yourself in a huge moral dilema.
You need to think your situation through very carefully before proceeding.
Put your emotional feelings aside for just a few minutes, and think about what you are doing, and where you want this relationship to go.
I don't know if my advice helped, maybe you should ask someone else. My opinion might be biased as my father had many affairs when my parents were married. It destroyed my mother, and me. I am totally against adultry.
Whatever you decide, you both will have to live with your decision. [ WiseWoman's advice column | Ask WiseWoman A Question ]
