[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Married co worker, me in live in relationship with long time boyfriend.  In a nutshell, too many overnights trips together, too many late night drinks getting to know each other personally and two ultimately unhappy people looking for something better.  I guess in a warped sort of way, we became each others therapists and this went on for well over a year before the affair started.  Emotional affair first, physical next.  [/quote]

I was totally in love with my much-older  boss … [b]we only went on one overnight trip, but we absolutely would have gotten together if there were more[/b]. I was kind of stubborn though - ultimately I wanted him to break up with his GF first and not use me as an excuse. I ended up leaving that job in part due to the dynamic, and I am glad I did. [/quote]

Yes, this dynamic is very real.  I've seen it time and time again.  I would never let my spouse go on unlimited business trips with a colleague of the opposite sex.  I would find a way to join him on as many of those trips as possible if necessary. [/quote]

Uhm.  You’re weird.  And, that’s not how it works.  [/quote]

Uhm, speaking from experience, that's exactly how it works.  Every single person I know (and there are many in my world) who have been in this situation spent too much time with a non partner/spouse in an out of office business situation.  It happens much more frequently than you know.  I'm not weird, just knowledgable.  [/quote]
