My friend is after my married brother …. help?

My brother is married, but going thru a separation right now ( his wife asked for a trial separation) So of course he’s beside himself and I made the mistake of telling my friend this. Because they were an "item" before he met his wife. Anyhow, my brother sent her an innocent email asking her what kind of person she thought he was while they were dating. And now all she talks about is my brother. She sends him emails regularly. But like a fool he is responding, keeping the letters going. He says that he still loves his wife & at 1st he said he wanted to work things out with her, but lately he’s be doing nothing but bad mouthing her and thinking of getting a divorce. And I am wondering how much influence my friend is having on him. She herself is single and longs to have someone in her life, and frankly, I think she sees what she wants in him, They’ve got a past, plus he’s got a new baby, and she loves babies. So she’ll have no problem playing "mommy" to his child.
Everyone can see this but him. I know he is distraught, but I really fear for him if he continues to further engage her in conversation, she ( I think ) is reading more into this than there is and I think will push him to chose her or his wife( trust me, I’ve known this woman for 10+ yrs)
What can I do as his sister?
My brothers wife also took off her wedding band. To me, this states " Hey guys, I’m available" . I probably shouldn’t have told my friend anything. maybe he wouldn’t be talking to her if he thought she didn’t know anything about the situation.
I don’t know if she is going to any kind of counceling, but I know my brother is.

I think my boyfriend's dumping me?

I’m 37 & my bf is 40. We’ve been dating almost 1 year. When we started dating I was married- but legally seperated. My divorce is still not final because of some marital assets we are fighting over. I realize this divorce is taking forever. I’ve not lived with my ex for over 1 year. My bf’s not the reason we are getting a divorce, just wanted to clear that up. My bf suddenly started saying we are committing adultery & reading bible verses to me everytime we talk. He lives 500 miles away, so we don’t see each other but about twice a month, although it has been nearly a month since we’ve been together. He thinks we should wait until my divorce is final before we continue seeing each other. I think that’s bull!! Sounds like an excuse to get out of this relationship to me…btw, i have a steady decent paying job, my own house, car & my kids are still in school here, He doesn’t really have a job at the moment, lives with his dad, has nothing to leave behind. His kids live in 2 different states. What do you think?
