I'm just saying that perhaps in her case contact with someone who is experiencing something similar may be a good thing. Yes, something "bad" may happen, but nothing guarantees that there will be hell to pay eventually. In fact, this might be the stimulus package she needs to make a positive change in her relationship.
Yep, your right. It "could be" a good thing for her, then again, it "could" only spell disaster! We don`t know this lonely man`s intentions, who she is chatting with online. Is it someone that she knows, or a fly by night? Perhaps someone she just met, a stranger?
I don`t know....my first response would be to try to work it out with her husband, not some other lonely married man, online.
I really don`t see much "positive change" happening from that situation.

Eh, I'm only playing Devil's Advocate - I know that the statistical odds (given the reports here and other places) favor trouble, but if the husband is truly unapproachable, then reaching out online is a natural action, and as such cannot really be faulted. It takes a certain...strength? Insanity?...to remain silent in a situation where all "practical" methods have proven useless.
I'm married and I have chatted with lonely married men AND single men and nothing has come of it. Granted I have a great relationship but my point is chatting online in itself doesn't have to lead to anything.
The main issue is the loneliness within the marriage. Counseling may help if the running around naked and throwing marshmallows doesn't

Everyone is immoral until proven innocent.. so thats how we treat the world. Because she is chatting with someone over the internet makes it a problem. Could it lead to one? Yeah.. it could .. but truly who are we to judge?
But I do have to say this.. she truly does need to speak to her husband.. and be rather adamant about the fact that she is feeling really lonely right now and by herself.. he may wake up and smell the coffee and realize that this could lead to something he may not want to encounter down the road...

Bingo! I wish you the best of luck, and also if you continue this "chatting online" with this married guy, please, be careful.
After reading some of the posts on this thread I can see some of the potential dangers that others have warned about. I would ask this question to the person who started the OP, why not share your feelings with another woman who might understand your situation and could possibly give you some helpful advice instead of a guy who's married and is quite likely to make your problems even worse? Once you start down the road which begins with communicating very personal issues with a person of the opposite sex who is also married there's a high probability that two marriages could be destroyed as a result of what you're doing even if it starts out innocently.
I enjoy chatting through emails with this person and we both made it quite clear we have no intention on cheating. Its like having a pen pal, I get a male perspective on things and he gets a womans. I can already tell he is much more intellectual than my husband and its refreshing to have varied conversations. There is nothing sexual about the emails, I would say it is no different than talking to everyone on this site, except its one on one, and I don't mean that literally.
