Question #1: My wife and I had been married for approx. 5 yrs. It has come to my knowledge that during that time she has been “unfaithful”. During the last year we were together I had unfaithfulness had become more and more apparent. I had at several times requested counseling which she refused on the grounds “we can work it out ourselves”. That never happened. During the last year we lived together I met a woman and have been with her since. (approx. 3 yrs.) We had never pursued a formal separation and/or divorce because at the time my finances were strained. I have since re-gathered myself and now want to pursue a divorce because would like to make my new spouse ‘legal’. What are my options and/or pitfalls? We live in NY metro area, have no children and no real assets.

I cannot over emphasize the need for you and your spouse to legally separate and divorce.

In short, you should tie up all the loose ends and arrange for a legal separation and file the divorce papers.
