I had an affair.
It lasted almost a year. When it was happening, we never called it that. "We aren't having sex, we're just friends." Total denial, even as our feelings for each other grew. He'd hug me everyday, but hugging was our only thing. The secret phone calls, the inside jokes. The things we'd talk about, tell each other. The thrill of being wanted again, of feeling atrractive again. My God. I was unfaithful. I cheated on my husband!
