Is extra-marital affair justified ?
2 years ago
I am a 58yrs old male. Since 2012 my wife has ended physical relations with me. There isn't even any general closeness or minimum intimacy between us. In these circumstances, since 2013 I have formed an emotional and physical relationship with an old friend who is a unmarried lady. So is my relationship with her justifiable for me, on ethical and legal grounds.?
A.Dear Sir,
Your relationship is not legal on ethical and moral grounds since you are husband of some other lady that is your wife.
I could have explained more if background is known to me. If background is made known in full then legal experts will be in position to understand correctly. Moreso, the background must be in brief.
Please give me FIVE STAR if satisfied by my answers.

The punishment of adultery section 497 of Indian Penal Code is not any more valid in India but it is a legal ground for opting divorce. Yes at personal level it can be drawback for your self - image.

A.Dear Client,
It is not justified on legal grounds as you are not divorced. You will have to divorce your first wife on the ground of desertion or irretrievable breakdown of marriage and then, this relationship can be justifiable or else this can fall under adultery.

A.Adultery is not a crime in India but if your wife somehow have knowledge about this sort of relationship of yours,then she is entitled to consider adultery as a ground of divorce after atleast one year of separation period from you. As a lawyer I can specify only the legal consequence.
