Have I crossed the line?

My best friend is an unhappily married woman. Her marriage has been rocky for several years and only continues because of their children. In the last 8 months we have become very close. We send each other text message 2 or 3 times a week. She often says how unhappy she is and tells me about their arguing. We sometimes exchange mild flirty messages but nothing serious, just banter really. We have never discussed our feelings' for each other. We have never kissed or had a physical affair. Are we having an emotional affair?

You are not helping her or her marriage, she needs to look elsewhere for emotional support ..you are deluding yourself that your contact is innocent ..because you are developing ( have developed) a strong attachment and are embarking on an affair with this woman ...you know this otherwise you would not have come on here for advice.

I think the fact that you are finding it so difficult to back off is significant.
