Mrs

by Anonymous

I am very happily married and have been for just under two years. We don’t have children yet but are thinking about starting. My husband is a really wonderful kind funny brilliant man. I love him a lot and would never want to jeopardize that. I have had long term relationships previously and have never cheated on any boyfriend even when I was young, I’ve always held fidelity to highest importance, treat someone how you wish to be treated. However, the last few weeks at work I have found myself really attracted to someone. I thought there was no harm in a small crush and looking at him from time to time, but the man in question has approached me and asked outright if I feel the attraction he does.


I’ve told him nothing would ever happen and I’m happily married. But I see him ever day and it’s consuming all my thoughts, just a raw physical attraction. I’m not close to him emotionally or as a friend. I feel so guilty as I love my husband very much and would never act on it but I feel like I am going a bit mad! Is this normal?

"You gave us counseling without making either one of us feel that you were taking sides.
You always maintained your impartiality with us. You encouraged Rita to be more assertive in stating what she wanted to get from your counseling sessions, as well as what she wanted to get from the relationship.
You taught both of us better communication between ourselves, which lead to an emotional comfort level between us that didn't exist before.
You took control of the direction of the session if things were not moving along.
Thanks so much
for helping us."
