Am I?

Namechanged.

Have recently started a correspondence with someone I knew 20 odd years ago, when we were young and daft....

I await his communication like a ridiculous teenager. We're both happily married. It's kind of like fancying someone off the telly. We're communicating between 4-10 times a day.

I am having mad fantasies.

Should I stop now?

either show them to your dh, or stop now

MadreInglese · 14/10/2008 16:38

You know you should stop or you wouldn't have started the thread

poshbloodencrustedwellies · 14/10/2008 16:38

STOP.......no good will come of it!

Yurtgirl · 14/10/2008 16:38

yes

Overmydeadbody · 14/10/2008 16:38

yes you should stop if you wouldn't want your DH to find out or if you wouldn't want him to be doing the same.

MrsMattie · 14/10/2008 16:39

Yep, stop now, before it gets out of hand.

You know the answer, He's not "someone on the telly" you know perfectly well he is a real-life person with a real-life wife. And you have a real-life husband. It's not innocent and harmless, it's the first stage of infidelity.

it will end in tears

No, no. Carry on. It is a great idea.

Your DH will be delighted to know this and no one will get hurt in the long run.

I am sure that your DH would positively welcome the news.

Have you got kids?

Great! then no one will be affected by this at all.

After emailing each other for a few weeks you will probably get to meet up and then have an affair. Your DH will eventually find out, you will split up and get the kids and he will live in a flat and have access every other weekend.

Go for it.

Majeika · 14/10/2008 16:53

Was that what you wanted to hear?

Thomcat · 14/10/2008 16:55

You've name changed. You changed your name to BeingStupid. Why would you do either of those things if it was harmless.

This sort of thing is NEVEr, EVER harmless.

If your DH saw would he understand, think it was hgarmless and not mind at all?

If your DH would you not mind?

Stop.

Of carry on and one day face the consequences of your behaviour and explain it to your kids.

Thank you wise women of MN....

I'm going to slink off and become myself again and shall return to you all non-stupid I promise.

I just needed to be told before I got more out of my depth.

Well I'm going to put the cat among the pigeons now and say keep going! Sounds a harmless bit of fun to me!
