Hi everyone. I had posted on this before but now I know what's going on. 5 weeks ago my wife suddenly left me and said she needed time to think. She said she didn't think she loved me anymore and needed to move into her own place. I thought she probably did since she has suffered from mild depression for some time. We have been married for 24 years and have two children, both still at home (22 years old and 18 years old, both girls). I asked her if there was someone else and she said there wasn't and I believed her. Since she moved out we had been on 3 dates that really didn't seem like much. I was staying in touch via phone calls and text messaging. Last wednesday I helped her move into her appartment and we made love. I thought this was going to be a step into the right direction. Today I called her and asked her out for next weekend. She said she didn't want to and said she didn't want to date me anymore. I mentioned dissolution and she agreed. Then I asked her if there was someone else and she finally dropped the bomb on me and said there was another guy who is 29, my wife is 48. this affair had been going on for a year. I need help and I am sure the advice on here can help.

Any advice appreciated.
