Re: My Wife\'s New \"Buddy\"
well, this is a thread already chock full of big advice, so all I can add is little advice.

While writing this post she called and I told her that I wanted to see the email he's been writing her. She got really bummed and said really? I said I knew I was being unreasonable and she said yeah you are. Damn!

It would probably be helpful if you didn't undercut yourself like this. How are you going to communicate with her and express *your* feelings if you anticipate and agree with *her* view on things?
Try asking questions rather than making statements. If she's showing reluctance to show you the emails, ask, "does that bother you that I want to see them?" then ask, "why?"
then ask, "how do you think all this makes *me* feel?"

edit: p.s. I empathize/sympathize with your situation. good luck. no idea how it will turn out because I don't think you've got all the pieces of the puzzle yet.
