Dear Abby: Ex-wife uses me for comfort as she plans to remarry an affair partner

DEAR ABBY: My wife of 15 years cheated on me with a man 20 years older than her. I never winked at another woman. We are divorced now, but I know we still love each other. She calls me from her new house in the middle of the night when she is scared even though she plans to marry him. She knows I’m the love of her life. Am I crazy for persisting? I can’t help but love her still. Is she just using me? Is there any hope? — IN LIMBO IN IDAHO

DEAR IN LIMBO: The divorce is final. That she plans to marry the man she cheated with should be a strong message, and it’s not like she still loves you. If she gets scared in the middle of the night, remind her that she now has a fiancé to protect her. Then change your number.
