Im expecting alot of criticism but I have nowhere else to turn. I have known my colleague for 18 months and always felt something there but as we were both married, never acted on it. At the start of this year we began working closer together and discussed our marriages, we were both feeling unhappy skip a few weeks and I left my husband 2 weeks after we first kissed. I knew that regardless of a future with my colleague, this marriage was not right for me. I seen my colleague as fun, and we both said it was just that however 6 weeks ago, we admitted that we had fallen in love with eachother and despite the lockdown, he has separated from his wife. As we are key workers we have continued to work from my home every single day. He said that his wife can't find out about me as it will cause too much hurt and upset. We both have kids that are early teens. I do believe he has split with her, we constantly talk on messages and he has never given me a reason to doubt him I guess, but he still goes home every day once office hours are done (to avoid suspicion he says) it breaks my heart everytime he leaves and he tells me to have some patience and I will see in time he is as serious about me as I am him. I know these situations don't usually work out in the other woman's favour and I don't know how to deal with this, I know we have genuine love but will he really leave the family home and sacrifice this for me? Should I give him an ultimatum? I can't bear life without him. My heart hurts so much for him to be with me
