[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't CONFRONT her -- that is an aggressive move.  Just let her know that you heard the call and it was upsetting to you.  [/quote]

This is good advice. Direct and honest, but not aggressive and judgy.

Also, she technically hasn't done anything, and it sounds like she may never have, so be nice.[/quote]

I think I'd take this route and combine it with the other poster who suggested stepping up your game a little. Something like:

"Dear Wife, I'm so sorry, because it was unintentional, but I came home early from the gym last week and overheard you talking with Jane in the kitchen. I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but just walking in and interrupting you would have been awkward for all of us at the moment. I heard you say that you are having feelings for Bob from the Kentucky office. I understand that you haven't acted on them and never plan to, and it means the world to me that I can trust you so much. That said, hearing it did make me feel pretty lousy, obviously, and I'm wondering - do you feel disconnected from our relationship lately? Is there anything I/we should be doing to bring that excitement back for us? Date nights? A vacation without the kids?"[/quote]

That actually sounds like your own fantasy - "DW; how can I be more hotter for you?  Would you stop fantasizing about Denzel if I worked out more and gave you a nightly foot massage?"

Screw that shit.  DW shouldn't be blabbing this crap to her friend, and putting it out there for her husband to overhear in any circumstances.  He's entitled to be more direct and raw with her in sharing how hurt and angry he is. [/quote]
