The sister is (or soon will be) taking a ride on the bone train. She will ride the train until she finds a man who loves to cheat on his partner.

Then, she will marry him and bitch (likely on this site) about his cheating. He will dump her and she will get back on the train and ride until she finds another of the same type.

Meanwhile, her kids get to watch mommy get on and off the train with as many stops as she can fit in.

She is crazy. She is still having great sex once a week and they are best friends. It does not get better than this.

-from someone in a truly loveless and sexless marriage who has been living as if separated for years (no dates, little communication, no sex for years, etc.)

She may be having a mid-life crisis.

Was he her first love?
Perhaps she wants to experience that “giddy, schoolgirl...Butterflies in the stomach feeling” that usually happens when a romance is brand-new.

But considering there are two young children in the equation, her life isn’t all about her and only her.

Plus what if the other side consists of nothing but weeds + dead grass......??!
She would have broken up an entire family already.

No, that is fantasy. As someone who thinks my spouse is the hottest thing I've ever seen, its not always butterflies and giddy. Sure sometimes going out for the night, they look great and you can't wait to get them home. But there is a bunch of days with sweat pants and being tired and sick kids/spouse in between that don't get your stomach all tied up

I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a budding emotional affair with a coworker at the very least.

Pretty offensive description of a loveless marriage to those of us that have actually endured genuine loveless and abusive relationships...

A marriage with someone described as a "best friend' and having a reasonably active sex life is not a "loveless marriage". I agree with the others that sis probably has her eye on someone else and is looking for a way out. If it were my sister I'd be giving her a Jethro Gibbs-style head slap and a stern talking to, with the hopes that she would come to her senses.

I'm not OP, but WTF? The sister has two small children and she isn't subjugated; it's just not exciting anymore. She needs to put on her big girl panties and work to inject some excitement into her marriage if she wants to be happy.
