B4anyone starts giving me grief, I won’t be taking on board. You are not not me, you haven’t lived my life; and unless you have been in my exact position you have no idea, the same as you have no idea what it’s like to walk on water etc. I am currently in a 15 year marriage; with children. i have been having an emotional affair for 7 years, it started completely platonic, he was a colleague at work. We had placements together for many years so was forced to work very closely together. The feelings started very very slowly, he’s married with children also. At the beginning we never thought we would be where we are now. It was just an unsteep slope down into where we were heading that we almost didn’t realise until we hit the bottom. For the past year things have been sexual, I completely am in love with him, my heart longs for him, my body longs for him, I’m unsure if he feels as deep as I do but I know he cares about me a lot. We don’t have the rship where we talk about leaving our famlies. We are 100% committed to them. I’m at a point now where it hurts to not be with him, and I know the longer it goes on the stronger it will be. I’m going to cut all contact, but how have people got over an affair to whom they are completely in love with. I love my partner, but he doesn’t make me feel the way my ap does. I know most of what we have is a fantasy, which is why we both won’t leave but it hurts. I have been so far 2 weeks with no contact and I can’t sleep, I can’t eat, I can’t concentrate becus he’s on my mind 24/7, I feel sick, I feel I’ll,& if I didn’t have children I think o would end it all. It hurts to love someone so much but to know that it’s never to be,2 know it was wrong from the start. How can something feel so right, but be so wrong. Has anyone been through anything similar, how did you cope?4 the record I won’t be telling my husband,2 think relationships are perfect is ridiculous, i know him,& I know he knows,& I know he’s avoiding making it known he knows
You admit that what you did was wrong, and I commend you for that. The issue at hand is not one of feelings, but of morals. Sometimes, in order to do the right thing, we have to set aside our own wants and desires.
You have a husband, which means you made a vow, a solemn promise to stay by his side. A promise made both to him and to God. Part of the wedding vows include the words “Forsaking all others” and that means setting aside whatever feelings you may have for any other man for the sake of the person you married. Your wedding ring is a physical symbol and reminder of that promise.
I’m not really one who is quick to advocate for divorce, so for the sake of your children, I strongly encourage you to work on your marriage. That means putting your husband first. In Christian circles we call it submission. To submit does not mean to become a doormat, but to yield. It means placing yourself in a position that honors your husband. That is the first step in letting your affair partner go.

Ugh. My mother did this to my father and it destroyed him for the longest time. Now at least he’s found a good honest woman who treats him right and my mom’s “dream man” turned out to be a creep who was cheating on her with a woman my age. Tell your husband. Let him decide what he wants to do.
You will receive no respect from all of us guys who have had a cheating spouse. You also should know that guys aren't dumb but we are very good at playing dumb. I guarantee you that your husband suspects you are cheating. I saw my ex-wife change before she actually cheated. Do the decent thing and leave your husband and set him free. He deserves better
I bet that he will not leave his wife for you. He has too much to lose. Give up this fantasy. It will not happen. Concentrate on what you have in your life instead of what you don't have

Don't ask a question unless you expect negative feedback. You always won't hear what you want to. hear.
You willingly got yourself in that situation. You should have ended it with your partner and then got involved with the other guy.
Now you have to face the consequences. Sorry for being so blunt; but there is nothing yiu can do but deal with it.You are an asshole who's cheating and not thinking about her husband and kids. You want people to feel pitty for you? You are a whore in the end and nothing will ever change that you bitch!
So what are you actually asking here because by the way you've worded your description you're not looking for solutions?
