Okay I know you have all heard this hoopla before, but just one more time, just in case the advice is different this time..here we go...Just for fun I put an ad on a popular "list", I really didnt mean anything by it..just wanted to see what came of it..lo and behold the most amazing, handsome, out of this world sexy man answered. We met and through the course of a relatively short amount of time( almost 6 months)we have fallen head over heels in love. I have not ever felt the emotions before that I feel for him, I CARE about what he thinks, how he feels and what he wants. I am an educated, hardworking, independent woman, I donot fall "easily" for just any handsome face. We donot live close to each other so our conversations are limited to daily IM chats, phone conversations and emails. Recently he has made a few trips to my neighborhood due to his work and we spend every minute we can together. Sounds perfect? It really is. except for His wife. No, she doesnt know about me, He has too much to lose if she found out. He is working to decide if his marriage ( 10 years) is REALLY over. He tells me to be patient, he says he is making progress. In the meantime I am spending my nights alone, while he continues to share a bed, a home, a life with his wife. I have never been in a situation like this before....What is my role? Do I have one? Am I his "girlfriend" ?Do I have the right to request he NOT have relations (SEX) with his wife? Is that "cheating" on me? anyone got any advice? :confused:
