Email 'thing' going on and I feel guilty...............................

Dh and I been married 9 years. Recently we've not been getting on so well. Always snapping at each other, too tired for sex. You've heard it all before.

Anyway a man I know through work and who goes to the same pub as me has been sending me regular emails at work and to my hotmail address, and we now email at least twice a day. Nothing sexual but quite flirty and basically just cahtting about our day. My dh does not know and he would go crazy if he found out. But it's got to teh point where I am looking forward to reading his emails and he makes me laugh so much. I can't stop thinking about him and I don't know why.

He is nothing compared to my dh to look at so why am I feeling like this? Not quite sure where these emails will end but I know he is attracted to me. He is married with children also.

Don't know why I'm typing this really, just lookimg for your opinion.

Thanks for reading.

Pan1 · 20/08/2006 23:16

Bed time. Feelingguilty - find a REALLY big perculator brimming with dark coffee, and plunge both nostils in...good luck with it.

Toothache · 20/08/2006 23:28

lol

LieselVonTrapp · 20/08/2006 23:34

I think the person that started this thread has buggered off anyway so lets just fight amongst ourselves.

Toothache · 20/08/2006 23:36

Fair enough!
I think she should shag him and be done with it.... get it out of her system then move on.

Lysander · 20/08/2006 23:37

Maybe 'feelingguilty' should start emailing and texting her husband instead....that could solve a few problems!

LieselVonTrapp · 20/08/2006 23:38

PMSL @ Toothache

LieselVonTrapp · 20/08/2006 23:39

Hey Lysander - maybe it is her husband trying to catch her out. Sorry I shouldnt joke.

Toothache · 20/08/2006 23:40

Lysander - where's the fun in that?

"hi love, have you got the tea on?"
"yes"
"great...are we having beef?"
"yes"

Not quite the same lol.

Lysander · 20/08/2006 23:40

LVT - don't joke....stranger things have happened!

Lysander · 20/08/2006 23:42

Toothache - haven't you ever texted sexy messages to your DP? It's great fun.
A few phrases with double meanings..... works wonders for bed time (if you make it to the bedroom, that is!!)

Toothache · 20/08/2006 23:44

Lysander - I'm bitter. Not even horny text messages could have saved H and I!!!

Barbie7 · 21/08/2006 00:06

Pan1, I think you're out of order being judgemental about feeling-guilty's username. I don't think she's wasted anyone's time, it sounds like a genuine problem and lots of people can relate to it. And if she wants to take advice here then fine, if not then that's also fine.

Nobody should feel like they have a right to judge anyone else, imho. After all none of us are perfect.

Also you only ever see what people are willing to tell, therefore it would be very foolhardy to think we know enough to judge anyone else's life.

Pan1 · 21/08/2006 07:42

Barbie7 - hi - I can directly relate to this problem, as many of us can - my point was simply that she has all the advice she needs ( and in fact did say she knew all of this anyway, andwhat needs doing), but is showing no sign of taking any of it on-board, as she doesn't want to "give it up" at the mo. - but, that is up to her..just I can see some of her best china being damamged......

feelingguilty · 21/08/2006 08:42

Pan1 I haven't said I didn't want to give it up, I said I din't want to give the committee up actually. And if I'm wasting your time then please feel free to buggar off And as for changing my name, lots of people feel guilty and don't want things to change but I do actually.

I thought about this lots last night and realise I have been absolutley foolish. And thank god I have before I'm in too deep as it were.

Will keep my email replys to bare minimum and certainly not every day. I will distance myself from this.
