I don't even know how to start. But I need to get this out of my system. I know that I'm probably going to get a lot of negativity pouring in, but I'm going to take that risk, I have to. I'm married, have been for the past 4 years, we were together for a year and a half before then - and I have no idea how this happened, but I've fallen hook, line and sinker for another man. He's married, and has a little son!!! I know, I know! It makes me cringe as well just writing this down. I'm pretty level headed and grounded. But this, how we feel about each other its beyond anything I've ever felt. We work together - but in different countries. We've been on conference calls, and I had a little crush on him because he's really smart and has a brilliant new refreshing leadership style, and then he was visiting my location. We met officially the first day, and just hit it off. Like kindred spirits. So after he'd finish his meetings, he'd come and hang at my desk and we'd talk about work, life, our experiences, our spouses. Then we went out for drinks one night after work, and spent the entire night - first at the bar and then at a coffee shop, till 6.30 in the morning - just talking. Its like we knew each other forever. We didn't get any sleep as we both had to be back in the office fairly early. Later that day, after our day of crazy meetings and work, he came by my desk and we chatted again. Its like we can't stop talking to each other. He was leaving that night, but when I was driving him back to his hotel, he kissed me. I was hoping on every star in the galaxy that all the intensity I felt for him - mentally and emotionally, would kind of die away if we had no physical chemistry. But we did - amazing chemistry. I haven't been kissed like that - ever, and I haven't been a choir girl when I was younger! When he reached the airport, he called me and said that he was falling in love with me - even if I feel it, I take my time telling a man that I love him. And I knew I was falling for him - hard. Post that, its been a couple of months and we try and talk to each other everyday - we're still in 2 different countries, 2 time zones, when we can around our "normal" lives. Now this is where it gets tricky, I was not thrilled in my marriage before him, but I always thought relationships need effort and patience, so to me I'd categorize my marriage as being happy and normal. I have no idea what he's done to me - but the world seems so much more alive, everything so clear. I see gaps, things I'm missing in my marriage now. I wasn't looking for something, because I thought I was done with the adventures of love - and that if I wanted excitement I had my memories. Being with him

hi, i think you should think before deciding on this issue. Do you really think you are missing something in your marriage? Think before you leap. The marriage you thought so far as normal and happy is not adventurous - that's what you are saying. Are you prepared for the adventure also or what if you miss the normal life.. Try to know this person more before taking a step forward in this direction. Just a kiss is not going to take care of all the relationship adjustments which you are going to face in the new adventurous life. I am not saying no, but be prepared to face it. It is not so easy to adjust.
