[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm genuinely curious to know.  Do you have low self-esteem?  Are you lonely?  Do you need the attention?  No matter how much the husband complains about the wife, do you realize or care that you are breaking up families with children? [/quote]

OP -

You may have your own filters so it may be hard for you to understand.  But if you want an honest answer, this would be what I would tell the wife of the man that I fell for.

I didn't set out to have an affair.  I never thought I was the type of woman that would be put into those shoes.  It had been a while that someone gave me that type of attention and I genuinely felt a deep connection to him.  So our relationship evolved from professional, to friendship, to romantic over about a period of 6 months.

He had similar needs and we both filled a void that we had at the time.  Was it selfish?  Yes.  Was it wrong?  Yes.  Do I regret it?  Yes.  Would I go there again?  No.  Because when reality sank in, I regretted the hurt I caused his wife.  I regretted the damage I caused to my own marriage and family.

I wish you well OP and hope you find the closure you are looking for.  Ultimately, your issue is with your spouse not the other woman.  Does he regret what happened and will he do it again? [/quote]
