Dear Eric: I have a 30-year-old friendship from high school. I am a woman, and my friend is a man. He got married to a smart, driven, friendly partner. She meshes well with our core group. They have been married for 13 years and have a 5-year-old.

The wife recently called me to tell me she wants a divorce ... I said I’d reach out to my contacts for divorce attorneys she could speak to.

The wife recently called me to tell me she wants a divorce and has proof of him hanging out with single females. She told me he’s abusive, which is concerning and shocking. In speaking with her and trying to be supportive I said I’d reach out to my contacts for divorce attorneys she could speak to.
