<human>: So my friend Ross has been with his wife Rachel for 8 years and married 2 of those years. He just told me today that he met someone from work and has been carrying on a relationship with her, Phoebe (36f), for 2 months. 

He said that he has felt bored with Rachel and that she is more like his mom than his wife. They don't have much in common and are drifting apart. 

They have a house and car together and Rachel has a child from a previous relationship. 

Ross says that Phoebe and him connect in a deeper way and they have more in common. 

I told him that he needs to ask himself where he sees himself in 5 years. If he wants to be with Rachel he should try couples counseling but if he wants to Perdue Phoebe then he should consult a lawyer to see how to proceed.

I don't know what else to say, I'd like for him to work things out with Rachel but right now he seems to be head over heels for Phoebe. 

Right now he is drunk and passed out on my sofa because Rachel found out about Phoebe.

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
<bot>: My best friend cheated on his wife and needs to choose between her and his mistress, I don't know what to say.
