Why do you think is going on here and how can I support him without becoming involved.
I'm very concerned for him and his two kids
They are together nearly thirty years.
He is my childhood friend / distant cousin.
They have two beautiful children 12/14.
They were happy until five years ago when his career rocketed to global CEO status of a an IT company.
She also worked in similar area,
Not at such a high level as they decided that she would work part time
Because of kids etc and it worked well.
They have the beautiful home and holidays and cars etc ... all the superficial stuff.
However in the last two years , she has started in the gym and making new male friends. Texting others beside him in bed .
Drinking hugely , blacking out, losing her belongings, not coming home, attending sex / swing parties and sexting other men.
Has lost interest in the kids.
All new friends , has fallen out with her family ,
She has also expressed feelings for an old boyfriend.
Mood swings off the charts.
She is 48 so I was thinking peri or meno .
My friend is gutted although he saw this go on , to a point , in his own parents marriage where they stayed together until the end
What is going on here ?
How can I support him. He is going to counselling .
