[quote=Anonymous][quote]Thank you, this is very insightful. Yes, he feels like a drug. But also a friend I can share feelings with. We have a connection, a mutual understanding, we speak the same language of love.

The longest we were apart during these few months was four days, and it felt like torture. It was when we decided to stop and figure out what we truly wanted from our lives. I understand I was going through withdrawal and should have stuck with it. But we started talking again, and next thing I know I am in his arms. I know he is selfish in that regard. He admits it too that when he sees me he is drawn to me.

Quitting my job is not an option, unfortunately, for many reasons. Leaving for a few days is not an option either. My parents live very far, and I don't have close friends I can visit, only out if state. But yes, thinking clearly is difficult when everything reminds me of him daily. [/quote]

The "feel good" aspect of the addiction is often destroyed once the affair is out in the open.  If you really want to quit, you each need to come clean with your spouses and then spend some time marinating in the shitstorm.  Things are a lot less awesome when you are confronted with the full scope of the pain and hurt your "affair" created.

Nothing good can come from something so destructive. [/quote]
