Hmmph. Tough one.
A good place to start is by asking yourself why you're kissing this guy. There seems to be 2 reasons people pursue affairs:
1.) There something missing in the relationship with your husband that you're trying to find in work guy
or
2.) You enjoy the adventure and danger associated with having an affair
You said that you're happily married, so perhaps it is the latter. There may be nothing missing in your marriage. Sometimes people pursue romantic affairs because they enjoy the adrenaline rush of engaging in taboo behavior. You're doing something dangerous and exciting.
Affairs are common, but personally destructive. My suggestion would be to find another outlet for your dangerous side. Maybe planning an exotic vacation to a foreign country or camping in some remote location? Something crazy and fun.
Good luck! Keep us posted. |

| I would avoid doing it again, surely a colleague at work could find out and tell your husband? Do you feel massively guilty? |

Fixed.
Wow did you ever cross the line? Kissing someone else while married is a huge sign of disrespect. Don't do it again. If you're unhappy, bored, neglected, insert whatever excuse that people cheat, then get a divorce. There is no excuse for this type of behavior, if there is a problem be an adult and talk it over with your husband. He does deserve at least that much consideration doesn't he?
People don't look elsewhere unless they are unhappy. Admitting it is the first step. |

of course, happy or unhappy, married is married. i think it's only ethical to get out of a relationship first before messing with a new one...
this seems like your dipping your toes into the pool of infidelity. and it's never cool. |
