My wife had an affair three years ago with her boss. It started out as "innocent" flirting, and quickly escalated. She lied to me repeatedly about things.
And here's the kicker ... while the affair was going on, she was telling me about all the rumors flying around the office about them. My wife and I joked about her "office boyfriend", because I just KNEW my wife would never cheat on me. It bothered me somewhat, but I rationalized it by thinking "She wouldn't be telling me this stuff if anything was really happening."
All that to say -- just because she's coming home and telling you about this stuff doesn't mean something isn't happening already. Not to cast aspersions on your wife, but her behavior isn't what you'd expect from a happily married person who wants to remain faithful.
Counseling helped us, and our relationship is stronger now that it ever was, but I don't wish that hell on anybody. I hope that's not what's happening here.
