Diane I salute you, clearly your husband loves you but it would have been very easy to jump off the deep end about his blog.

I also thank you for your honesty and hope it will save others from themselves in the same situation.

I wish you both a long, happy and fulfilled marriage together.

The “final chapter” in my story (to cheat or not) is that I gave Diane the link to my blog after work one Friday. She read it over the weekend and we ended up having a good discussion about it the following Monday and things have been great between us since then.

The experience I went through was never about looking for something outside of my marriage because I was unhappy or unfulfilled. I was rocking along fine in my marriage until I unexpectedly encountered this other amazing person that captured my attention and affection. As I told Diane, in 20 years of marriage I had never encountered a more perfect combination of everything that a woman should be outside of my wife and it threw me for a loop. The process of blogging about it helped me to get my head screwed back on straight and I ended up not cheating on my wife and I was able to honestly share about the whole situation with Diane which has (thankfully) only served to strengthen our friendship.

Keep up the good work that you’re doing!
