I listened to the patronising musings of the press, bewildered by his latest confessions. Don't you get it? The man is hoplessly in love with Maria and using you to shout it from the housetops.
Here is the gist of what he said to the Associated Press:
1. I may have flirted too physically with a handfull of women since my marriage, but never since I met Maria. (Up for Maria, Down for Wife)
2. Maria is my soul mate, the love of my life, and no matter what happens I am glad I have had the wonderful experience of loving her and being loved by her. Few men are fortunate enough to experience love like this.
3. (I know my duty) I am going to try to fall in love with my wife all over again.
It seems he is tired of subterfuge and is being completely honest about at least one thing, his emotions. He is not even pretending to feeling guilty. The only person whose feelings and dignity he preserves at all costs is Maria. Neither political career nor wife can be allowed to interfere. Furthermore statement 3 above closes off his wife's options. To keep her self respect she now has little choice but to cut him loose.
This is probably what he wants and expects.
