You already have a duel income of $12,000 a month with you bringing in $5,000 and her brining in $7,000. I am confused as to why you're talking about a dual income of $10,000/month if you are already exceeding that.
Like ice hockey without skates and no ice 😀 And they use a ball with lots of holes in it. Mostly popular in nordic countries or some other european countries
While I understand you're hurting and your marriage is falling apart, you're being selfish and irrational.
You can't even take care of yourself, how could you possibly be a parent?
I can't help but feel that the reason you at 30 were going after a 20 year old was you wanted a caretaker as your health failed, and someone your own age would know better.
Being a single mom is incredibly hot, being a full time caretaker for someone with MD in rapidly declining condition is also hard. Asking her to do both is absurd.
“if you really want me to be happy, you'll let me go”
The reason she's saying this is that she's not happy and if she wants kids you can't help.
The other thing to consider is if you'd even be around to see this child you can't help raise grow up. Recent health history suggests… no.
I’m sorry OP, I think you’re having a paralysing response to his infidelity.
He had an emotional affair and has suffered no consequences. In fact you seem to have given their ‘friendship’ your blessing but have you forgiven him?
It’s not your fault. It’s his. He chose to run into another’s arms (physically or emotionally) rather than talk with you, his partner.
That they meet up now is completely unacceptable. That’s unforgivable. Completely unforgivable. He has to cut contact and prioritise your relationship. You both need to face his betrayal head-on and have hot discussions about honesty, truth, forgiveness and your future.
Be ready for some terrible truths and manipulative lies. Be ready to begin again, either with or without him. Good luck.

Why is your first assumption that he has a girlfriend rather than the million other reasons it could be?
Have you ever even met this guy in real life? How are you “FWB” if you live in different states?
Christ. So my partner is no longer doing it daily
This is why it’s always good to have a backup plan
