Longtime Affair
LONGTIME AFFAIR APPEARS SET TO LAST FOR LONG TO COME, DEAR ABBY:
I’m married; he’s married. We’re in love and been for eight years. We’ve tried breaking it off several times the years, but a force bigger than both of keeps bringing us back together.
I never believed in soulmates true love until we met. Our love is deep and unconditional; our are intertwined. It’s a shame that it happened late life, but it happened nonetheless. He treats me like a queen.
Neither of us is leaving spouses or family. We are both in our 50s and act like we’re in our 20s. It’s magical!
Is it wrong? Do we go until something changes? Do we try for the 100th time break away? An affair, no matter how you slice it, will never be accepted in the eyes of society, so it will be perceived as unacceptable. What’s your opinion?
