It’s wrong on so many levels but oh so right when it works out! I had an AP who I met just by chance and we hit it off. We would meet once every other week when schedules aligned. It was more of an emotional affair with very frequent messaging. However, when we were able to be intimate, it was absolutely incredible! Imagine two people in sexless marriages finally connecting with each other. It’s incredible. The attention from both sides led to some amazing times! Sadly, things fizzled out because of Covid.

I would recommend only entertaining the prospect of an AP if both are in similar positions with marriage and family life. Otherwise, I would assume being on unequal grounds could lead to differential expectations and cause major issues. Also, the risk is real that everything in your life could totally blow up and be lost.

All this talk about AP on this board makes me think that a new AP could be anywhere!

Haha I don't care about the context of this thread. Just scrolling to find out the May-September thing

Same. I really do think that people at least in the DC area have some seasonal dating. Spring time is full of energy! Everyone is excited after a long winter. Then once you get into Fall, the weather changes again, holidays come up, and things get quiet. There is probably a study on this phenomenon!
