Well I’m friends with his wife and our kids out friends and my kid would lose his two best friends if this happened; besides which why would I want to be used and use someone for something so fleeting and empty? I’m real love or bust.

Because some women and most men enjoy sex for sex's sake.

This was in Old Town (I mention it because it's incredibly gossipy) about 4 years ago. If she could do that there, anyone can.

Sure you can do it op....just at your own profound risk. And don't be surprised if you are discovered. The denial thing cheaters have, the belief that no one will find out, is extremely prevalent and a common fault line in affairs. People have a way of finding out. That's the reality. It's very hard to not reveal unconsciously in your body language, voice, gestures, etc a strong sexual connection with another person in the room. People sense it.. Especially among a large group where at least one person will be particularly intuitive and observant, but the odds are even more than one will sense it. A few probably already have sensed what you are doing. The unconscious is a powerful thing.

True. And OP, do you know who else will figure it out, much better than you think they will? Your kids. You say they are 10 and 13. Wow. Perfect ages to be thoroughly screwed up when they even suspect mom is having sex with their friends' dad. If you want to alienate and disgust your children, create drama for which they won't forgive you, and make them eager for the day they head away from you to college -- screwing around with married men in your family's "circle" is a perfect way to do that. If you think your kids won't know, are unobservant, won't care if they do know...you know nothing about kids that age.

OP, is this really "only" for sex you're considering this, or for "affection" or more likely some combination? Purely sexual gratification, you can take care of by yourself, to be blunt; if you want affection and affirmation -- that's why you need to cool your jets, learn to wait, and get therapy before you start any form of new relationship, even casual hookups, because neediness like that is NOT fixed by...casual hookups.

I’m not OP. I am however someone who has “neediness like that,” and I don’t think it’s pathological. Isn’t it normal to crave the feeling of loving and being loved?

I asked him to take a bottle of wine over to her. When he got there I texted both of them and that was that. He took care of her and got home and we never spoke about it again. She got back with her husband not too long after and we all get together at least once a month for dinner.

You’re a good friend.

Believe me, someone knows and she just is living a fantasy that no one does. OP, you just got out of a marriage, DO NOT invite drama like this. Talk to a therapist, STAT. You will ABSOLUTELY regret sleeping with one of the married men in your mutual circle because guys can be honey sweet to your face and complete DOGS behind your back.

Karma is a greedy debt collector, stay away from this .

They can be dogs to your face too. Usually at the same time that they are being honey sweet for as long as they want to f*ck you. The instant they think you are a threat to their marriage or stability prepare to be dropped like a stone into the ocean.
