I have a good guy friend (not my bf) who is having a very hard time in his marriage. He seeks me out for a listening ear and occasional advice. His wife has been having an affair with her former high school sweetheart since last Feb. They were still together trying to work it out until October, then he moved out. She is still seeing the bf, and my friend has paid a retainer to an attorney. However, the wife is now telling him to hold off on filing because she doesn't know what she wants. This really has my friend messed up. In the mean time, he has started to see another friend of ours who he is developing a real interest, and this friend is a really great person. I don't know what to tell him anymore. I really feel like he needs to follow his head and not his heart, because he does still have feelings for the wife and they do have a son together. She has gone back and forth so much that I think she is just throwing my friend a bone to keep him around. What do you think?
