Get to an MC real quick. You have obligations both ways but you also have issues both ways.
You are certainly in a delimea. Can you call Steve, Jennifer or Cerri for some phone counseling?
You are asking a very difficult question.
Here's one from me: Why is your current W sooo distant? Are you giving her a reason to leave?

Confess to your W(wife) what you did because she has a right to know and decide whether or not she wants to remain married to you. Sadly sometimes an affair is THE wake up to call to many BS(betrayed spouses) that the marriage is in far worse shape than suspected.
As far as your ex-W is concerned, tell her you want no further contact with her unless it is child related. I suspect that your ex-W MAY be in a relationship drought at the moment and she is scared of being without a man in her life. Don't fall for wishful thinking about your ex-W's words just because your present W is not acting very loving towards you.
