I'm married, late 50's, husband is a good man but a workaholic who rarely sits down or relaxes. He's always been like it but I thought as we got older he'd slow down a bit-but if anything he's making more projects for himself. For about the past 2 years I've said I feel unwanted, sidelined and that he's not interested in me anymore.(we haven't been intimate for well over a year due to us both being tired and out of synch with each other). A few months ago I started getting friendly with someone at work and long story short, we met up about half a dozen times and had sex. I'm between we'd Email, text numerous times a day. He's also married and we both said we didn't want to leave our partners but just wanted some excitement... A few weeks ago his messages became fewer and now he's virtually ignoring me, although he says he's busy and when things settle down it'll be different.
Now I'm not stupid, I know it's over but he's too cowardly to tell me but I'm really struggling to move on. I definitely don't want to leave my husband but my life is so boring I really loved the excitement of those 2 months... even though I knew it was wrong. I've told my husband I feel unloved and he just says he does love me but he also loves working...
I'm definitely NOT going to look for anyone else but how do I move on from the excitement I had for that short time and being made to feel sexy again? I just want to cry with loneliness...
