Many times people don't appreciate it at all when you tell them things they don't want to hear. It could easily damage your relationship with him.
He probably already knows anyways, but is clinging to a slim hope.
Just be his friend...keep mum about his wife...let him find this out on his own
Thank you. I thought about this over the weekend and decided to stay silent on this. That can change if he keeps asking me for advice on winning her back, but I first want to allow his therapy sessions do their work.

I would imagine that in that it is an EX he knows she's moved on. Seesh.

At first I was going to say tell him since he insists upon dragging you into it. But since you have brought out the possibility he could be a danger to himself and others, I don’t think you should. This could put him over the edge and who knows what would happen.

I would instead tell him to ask the advice of his therapist. If you are able to communicate with the wife you might want to advise her that she is giving him false hope. It’s possible she doesn’t realize it. If she does she’s playing games and she should know considering his fragile state of mind, it will not end well.

She needs to sign the divorce papers.
