Help me with my self discipline!

[Jazzicatz]

My relationship with my dp has not been great for a long while now, and tbh we are together for the sake of the kids. I work pt and my supervisor and I have built up a really good relationship with emails passing backwards and forwards all day. I know he would like to start something with me and if I am honest I would with him, but I know it would be damaging to our professional relationship, and of course my relationship with dp. I don't want to be with this guy, just have the odd night of unbridled passion. What should I do?

You have to finish one relationship before embarking on another, it is not fair to either of the men your children or yourself. I think it you look at this rationally, the chances of it turning out smelling of roses are slim

You need to end the relationship with DP, It's never healthy to stay with someone for the sake of the kids and rarely in their best interests in the long run.

And then you can decide what to do with your supervisor, but again these things rarely end happily.

I go away for work therefore dp would probably never find out, which I know doesn't make it any better but.....

I am sure you are going to get lots of posts telling you not to do this. I am one of them. Just read through some of the threads where people have been caught in such a triagle of deciet.

Your dp and dc deserve so much better than to be lied too if you do start anything. it is not wrong to have feelings for someone else - but you know this is the wrong thing anyway dont you? Thats why you are asking for reassurance now.

Have resect for yourself and if you still feel like this talk to your dp and end this relationship first.

I really hope you use your head and do the right thing - you know what that is.
