Should i tell my boss's wife about our affair?

Hey guys, me again. 22 year old who slept with her married 38 year old boss.

Yesturday was horrific. He always texts every 4 days with random excuses just to talk. Today is day 5. I was waiting like an idiot for a text from him and it never came.. it hurts so much and not just because he doesn't care about me but also because I keep thinking about his wife. That poor woman who doesn't know a thing, who carried 3 children for this man.

I want to tell her so badly and I know I can, I have her number, socials. I have all the screenshots and proof. But maybe I'm thinking out of revenge? Maybe if he still texted me this wouldn't have even crossed my mind ? Should I tell her ? Would that make us all heal? Or am I just trying to ruin this poor woman's life even more by dropping that kind of bomb on her?

I know it won't help my suffering. I think he already has the ultimate karma for pretending everyday that he didn't betray her. Tossing and turning just hoping I don't tell anyone. I hope he can't look in the mirror when he thinks about what he has done with me (which I know I'm also to blame for). But maybe she should know? Would her life be better if she left?

uff being stuck on someone's texting pattern like this. every day that passed felt like a verdict on how much i mattered to them. what hit me reading this is that you're carrying guilt for your part in it AND heartbreak from someone who keeps showing up only when it suits him

Girl...are you sure some part of you isn't wishing to text his wife hoping everything would end on their end so that he can finally be w you..the poor woman just gave birth..but I totally understand how you feel but please think of the wife more than how he is making you feel and just know we are here to hear your emotions and how you feel..you are not alone

this is messy and painful. what helped me in a situation where i was angry and hurt was waiting until the strongest emotions settled before making any big decision, because i wanted to be sure i could live with it no matter what happened afterward

if he texted you right now with one of his usual excuses, would you still feel the same need to tell his wife, or would that urge get quieter again
