[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm married to the man I had an affair with 20 years ago.  He was married, I was not - no kids involved.  He approached me, I turned him down repeatedly, he eventually left his wife.  We didn't start anything until after he was separated (but not divorced).

We have been married for 16 years and have two kids.  They know he was married before, but that's all they know.

I don't foresee us ever getting divorced.[/quote]

If he was separated when you started things, then this does not qualify as an affair. Sorry! But glad to hear it's worked out for you both![/quote]

Agree. If you got together after he had separated your relationship wasn't based on the high he was getting from secrecy and deception. Totally different deal.

I also think affairs with no kids involved have a much better chance of working out anyway. When people divorce without kids, you can move on much easier than people in a shared custody situation who are constantly in contact about child-raising. Obviously people have more time and usually money and energy as well if they aren't dealing with an ex and kids so it makes the relationship easier to develop and grow in a healthy way. [/quote]
