Well actually I'm of the poker-arsed-moral-preachey school myself but I think Maximo if you do go ahead, you will not be coming to MN to chat about it! Am I right?!

ScottishMummy · 21/09/2007 09:17

LOL SSSandy2 - i got told to chill out about this topic for stating aforementioned views

OrmIrian · 21/09/2007 09:27

I really wouldn't worry. I don't think there's anything wrong with your marriage - jsut because you fancy another man doesn't mean you don't fancy and love your DH. I have had a few of these over the years - never strayed beyond the realms of fantasy. In fact since I stopped having 'crushes' our sex life took a dive a bit . Good fun and harmless because (and this is the important bit) I never actually acted them out.

YWBU if you did anything about your feelings.

maximopark · 21/09/2007 18:19

hi scottishmummy; no i dont think your any of those things, i agree with everything you say, and before this happened to me i would probably be saying the same thing. i didnt go looking for this, but its really nice. will never act on it, too much to lose.
ormirian; you no what i mean. x
2hot2cook; yeah, he could just be taking the piss, god knows im no halle berry, but im not a minger either

had a mad crush on my sons swimming teacher a few yers ago. total lust. everytime he looked at me i started shaking! sex life with dh improved. lasted 2 years. never acted on it of course, but still remember him.

Lorayn · 21/09/2007 18:48

I think everything ash been said here really, as long as it is a harmless fantasy I dont see the problem, but imagine how yu would feel if you new DH was thinking about someone else when you were bumping uglies.
Also have kind of been on the other end of this, a woman at DD's school was admiring on my 'brother' until I said 'my brother??my brothers live in scotland, you mean my partner?' ...........

maximopark · 21/09/2007 19:39

ScottishMummy · 22/09/2007 00:53

LOL aye cut tae the chase dunno whether any winching occurred,any nae nippin then?

Blu · 22/09/2007 01:04

Friends with his wife?
What's your problem? Friends share and share alike, surely?

After all that's why she's shagging your DH, isn't it?

(I live quite near you - I hear what goes on, you know!)

expatinscotland · 22/09/2007 01:33

Did she shag the husband then?

What a coo if so.

janemarple · 22/09/2007 12:46

maximopark; just read your thread; want to give you my advice, basic as it is.
i think you should spend one night with him, shag his brains out, get all this lust & frustration out of your system, then walk away and forget him! who will ever know. he wont say anything, and you wont, so happy ending! have fun

maximopark · 22/09/2007 12:52

jane marple? dont you live in st.mary mead, knit, and solve murders while queing up for your pension. you liitle minx, what would the vicar say ? or are you shagging him

ps; all scottishmummys. true, not all scottish men are ugly, but the good looking ones are all gay (think colin & justin) agree dr.who very tasty. but thats it. oh, apart from thr dark haird one in new era taggart (no, not the woman )
blu; not us. no one else would want to shag my husband even with the lights off.

xyzabc · 22/09/2007 14:13

oh fgs, maxi, just shag him like miss marple said. just dont move near me when your finished with him, i dont live far from clapham

PatsyCline · 22/09/2007 15:02

MaximoP,

Have you ever heard the expression, "Don't shit on your own doorstep"?, well, that applies big time to this scenario.

I can see the appeal of a man who looks like Daniel Craig with a better body (in fact, I feel slightly faint just typing it), but when it ends, you will still have to see him all the time.

I know you've got the hots big time for the flirty git, but he's not the only attractive man in the world. If you need to have an affair, have it with someone else and think about him while you're at it!

Patsy x

maximopark · 22/09/2007 17:02

thanks patsy, i know its too close to home. im not looking for an "affair" if all i wanted was a bit on the side i could get that anywhere (like we all could). i wont do anything to wreck my kids happy life. i know hes a loser to be flirting like this in the school playground, but im a bigger loser for falling for it. his wife knows, and i think other mums are noticing, so might put ds in the after school club so i dont see him (or her).
