“Truth be told, I really thought this man’s marriage was over. I knew it had been on the rocks for a long time but by the time we were talking, I thought the only thing that was holding up his divorce was a signed settlement. I never felt like I was stealing someone else’s husband and yet my story became one that could have been seen on an episode of Jerry Springer or Cheaters.
I was, as I called it “very married” and I was committed to have things stay that way. Even though my marriage was far from perfect, I was used to what it lacked. I went with it because it was predictable. I never saw myself doing anything as bold and outright crazy as finding a lover and starting such a great big firestorm, as I did. I was not one to live on the wild side and I hated change above all."
