The Most Ill-Advised Affair Known To Man

There are a whole host of adultery blogs on the net, and they all at some point publish their "rules". These "rules" are supposed to keep people from getting hurt, keep people from getting caught, keep people from getting the clap, etc. On average, they all advise against every aspect of my situation. Behold:

  • I have a huge crush on this guy. I have for a very, very long time. It was, at one point, one of those sweet daydream, giggly, think about but never truly consider cause I'm married type of crushes. I harbor no illusions of running off into the sunset together, but I have much more than a sexual interest.
  • We work together.
  • His wife is crazy. (She's about as crazy as I would be if I thought my husband were cheating on me, back when I still gave a shit what he did.)
  • My husband has the potential to kill him in a psychotic rage if he ever figures it out.
  • My friends at work know about this crush of mine and have warned me countless times to be careful to avoid the exact situation I'm in today....... if they find out, I will lose them too.
  • Nearly all of our shenanigans take place during the business day.
  • He's made it absolutely crystal clear that he wants no emotional relationship, and I've agreed. (they like it when you agree with the stupid shit they say)
  • Our entanglement came about *after* people started gossiping about us. Think "Let's Give Them Something To Talk About", except that really isn't our goal.
So, by all counts, this should blow up in my face and destroy my entire life and possibly my career, oh, by, say, Christmas? Will that stop me? No. Absolutely not. I have wanted this man for so long that I would risk just about anything to have him.......
