I love the guy I married but over the last several months it’s turned to a friendship kind of love. I find myself crying multiple times a day from being so unhappy. I’ve never felt that my husband cares about my feelings and is constantly throwing me under the bus when we’re around his family. His family over the years have made it very clear they don’t like me. He’s always been a “we’re a team. A unite” yet he doesn’t practice what he preaches.

I met another man at a recent work beach party, and it felt different. A great difference. We intellectually and physically connected. I finally found my sex drive again. I was worried I had a low libido. That changed after meeting this guy. I can’t stop thinking about him and we talked the other day on the phone for nearly an hour and it was the first time in a long time that I genuinely smiled and laughed.

My husband is begging me to not end the marriage but I’m so unhappy and I’m physically and emotionally no longer committed. Should I stay in a marriage that needs serious damage control even though I’m truly unhappy? I don’t have plans to run into the arms of another man if this marriage doesn’t work out. Please help.

Edit: I understand after reading comments that I am emotionally cheating. I don’t condone it but I’m currently married to someone who doesn’t consider my feelings.
