Especially with your wife.I don't think having a "let's just be friends" conversation ever really works out. It's much easier said than done.
Yeah we're the ones trying to start a fight with a dude who has been a constant troll for almost a decade. Somehow I don't think you'd say the same thing if it was Araysar saying the same thing.Kegs first post about what Wormie should do was fine. It was crass but it's a view that many would have and he phrased it fine. Stop piling on him because you didn't agree with it and trying to start a fight with him.
And here is why so many marriages fail.i don't see anything wrong with testing the waters.
"I'm not ashamed of you. I'm ashamed of myself for beingwithyou.""I love you, but I'm not in love with you."
this is not an adequate summation of the stance i took. the position is based on the circumstances at hand (no kids, no threat of financial ruin, an apparent connection with this girl that is far stronger than what he's had with his wife).But that's fine, this thread really needed a dissenting opinion whose answer will always be 'you should just cheat on your wife bro'.
I know you're being facetious but it is actually a tough call.this is not an adequate summation of the stance i took. the position is based on the circumstances at hand (no kids, no threat of financial ruin, an apparent connection with this girl that is far stronger than what he's had with his wife).
let's weigh the pros and cons of my suggestions against your very well thought out and "mature" suggestion -- to have a heartfelt conversation with his wife (who is, by his own admission, deeply in love with him) about him having feelings for another woman:
"Test the waters"
PROS:
- Gain much deeper perspective about your feelings for the 26y year old
- Gain more perspective on where your feelings for your wife ultimately stand
- Not guaranteed to shatter wife's esteem
- The thrill of fucking a hot 26 year old
CONS:
- Outside chance of being caught and hurting your wife
- Might be considered "dishonest"
"Gavin plan"
PROS:
- Honesty with wife
CONS:
- Destroys wife's esteem, probably much more than if she caught you cheating.
- Ultimately nothing learned about yourself and did not gain any perspective on whether you should be with your wife for the long haul
- Wife will probably demand you leave school thus crippling your career development
- Don't get to fuck a hot 26 year old
tough call there.
Ill add to this list too...Let's add one more con to the first list:
CONS:
- Outside chance of being caught and hurting your wife
- Might be considered "dishonest"
- 26 year old might go fatal attraction on your ass if you realize it was a mistake and no longer want to sleep with her
This is actually true. My cousin cheated on his wife and the butt hurt women family members barred him from family functions. After 2 years they allowed him back but now he won't come because the gentle hearts of women sided with his wifeIll add to this list too...
- Your family might find out so you are now the token asshole that ruined and hurt little miss unicorn...
That sounds like a reward.the butt hurt women family members barred him from family functions
