Marriage Advice?

I have been stressing over this. My best friend (like a sister) has been confiding in me that she is chatting w/ an ex friend from her child hood. He is a man and she confided that he has kept in touch with her for years. She has been married for almost 12 years now and shes confused. She's never really been happy (from what I can tell and what she's told me), and so Im wondering if she's interested in this man for all the reasons her husband isnt fulfilling in her.





I dont want to be the person that says, ';YOUR MARRIED! Think about that!'; but she thinks she has strong feelings for him. And is now considering leaving her husband for this man or atleast to see if something more exists with him.





I want her to be happy but I dont know what the right advice is to give her as they have been to counseling, and her husband does have anger and emotional issues. What should I say when she brings this up again?Marriage Advice?
Say what you think. I believe in honesty and even rude awakenings. Once you've said what you think. Leave it at that.Marriage Advice?
If you are truely her friend then you will be honest with her and tell her what she NEED';S to hear and not what she WANT';S to hear.Good luck to you.
Everything needs be out in the open and discussed honestly before any life-changing decisions are made. Divorce is very much like the death of a relationship. Most professionals suggest waiting at least a year before getting into another serious relationship after a divorce so that there will be enough time to let all emotional scars heal prior to making serious committment to another. Therefor, before exploring the possibilities of another relationship the current one needs to be dealt with with total commitment. If the decision is eventually made to end the relationship then it needs to be done completely and with finality. It is sort of like standing with one foot on the dock and one foot on the boat. If a person stays like that for too long they will eventually end up in the lake.
It sounds like her marriage is already over. She's cheating on her husband with this guy even if she isn't sleeping with him, they've been to counseling %26amp; it hasn't helped, and her husband has anger issues.


It sounds like she needs to get out now before her husband, who has anger issues, finds out she's cheating on him with an old friend.
You would have anger and emotional issues to if your spouse was having an online relationship with an x g/f honey.Herhubby may need counseling, but even if the guy is the guy of her dreams, her happiness will be short lived.If she has NEVER been happy then theres a reason for it and this other guy cannot fullfill her.He cannot BE her ';EVERYTHING'; no matter how hard he tries.At some point he will fail and she will be unhappy again. She doesnt know what he is really like and why isnt he married if he is such a good catch?What kind of man chases a married woman and wrecks a home for his own selfish intrest?She may leave her husband for him, but thats no garauntee everything will end well.She may go from frying pan to fire.If she leaves her husband , she needs to live ALONE for about 5 yrs and grow some.Get some counseling.Go to church.She married her husband for a reason.Dont throw it away, once egg is cracked theres no way to put it all back in and make it like new.
Be up front with her and let her know that what she does is her business but you don't want to hear about it. If she doesn't like it then it's time for you to say good bye. She should never have told you about cheating to begin with.
To make a decision, and stop playing games with her husband's emotions as well as her own. If she is going to stay, then stay. If she's going to leave; then leave. A heart is not a play thing, so grow up and get her s**t together!!!!!
Well honestly there isnt to much you can say your friend is miserable and it shows she wants another guy and is tired of her marriage. Will she leave him ? Who knows. Will she cheat on him ? Who knows. She most likely wants her friend there with her and wants her to support her and not remind her she is married but more so she is mostly wanting someone to talk to. She could be trying to figure out what she is going to do with her husband and than leave him or she could just fool around with this guy and if she likes what she is getting she could then leave him but the best thing for you to do is be by her side and just listen to it.
Tell her bluntly to keep her undies on shes married or stop hanging with her before it turns into your problem. Birds of a feather flock together
i think your friend is the one who is making herself unhappy in her marriage. she is married but has been secrectly having an affair with this man[it may not be a physical affair,but it i definitely something mental]. she is at a point where she convince herself she is no longer happy with her husband and needs to be with this other guy.i think she would be in for a big suprise.this guy seem very confortable just being the other guy in her life,but her husband has given her 12 years of his. u need to convince her to go to counselling.i dont think u cant help her.her problem lie deeper.
