If your marriage is a good one, its not worth throwing away what you have for what might be. Human relationships can be very complicated, and sometimes a strong attraction that feels like it might be a physical attraction, really isn't.
You have been married for a long time, and if this is the first time you have ever been attracted physically to another woman, I don't think I'd be inclined to trust it. There are people who have been married for a long time to the opposite gender and wind up "coming out", but usually they have had attractions to the same gender in the past and were covering the feelings up.
Do some soul searching and see if you can figure out what it is about this woman that attracts you. It may just be that she understands you and you have a lot in common. No one can make the decision of how to handle this for you, but if your marriage is good, don't throw it away for a one time attraction.
