Massive crush on much younger man

Anyone else found themselves in this situation? I am married but the spark has gone and we are more like good friends than anything else.

I now find myself with a massive crush on a much younger man. Astonishingly, it appears to be mutual. I don't know whether to be flattered, shocked, appalled that he has tried to seduce me (which he has) or excited.

I am aware that there is a huge MILF, cougar thing now and I most certainly do not intend to be a scalp on some cub's bed post. God, how embarrassing. I can't avoid him because we live in the same community. Let's just hope I don't bump into his mother, lol!

why would anyone want to talk to your husband about your maturity or your kids?

Are you a bit tipsy or something?

We might like to tell him your marriage is dull, that you are just friends, that you are eyeing up a young stallion whose already tried to seduce you, and thinking of suggesting an open marriage. Now that would be a good conversation to have.

I find that the internet and getting pissed never does much for one's posting style.

ewww. What a catch you are not

Poor kid/s.

Mist - fantastic!! Let's hope he is having great sex......

Ann - you really are extraordinary. I presume you have not the slightest idea about the real nitty gritty of long term relationships.

Poor kids!!! Hilarious, absolutely priceless........yes, they probably should have been taken into care because I have the audacity to actually fancy someone other than my husband.

Watch out - there are the thought police waiting to take away your children because you just happen to be thinking about the stallion at the gym rather than your husband!!

Love it.....honest....you have made my day!

What have you done then Butterball?

I have a massive crush on a man who is seven years younger than me. I'm pretty sure he's not interested though. It is a pain in the arse though because you can't make yourself unfancy people, or maybe you can if you imagine them lying in bed with morning breath whilst farting and scratching their arse. That's what I keep doing.

Butterball, as mentioned upthread the grass is unlikely to be greener, the reason YM is focusing his attentions on you may be that he wants a bit of nobody knows about it, no strings attached hanky panky. I know that you feel that your marriage has no spark but is it worth hurting your family for someone that is only after wham bam thank you mam?
There is also the possibility that you might be misreading signals, you say that you can tell by body language, that is easily imagined/exagerated in the mind of someone that is infatuated.
