Thank you MoCS, what you said is something I think about so much. It's hard for me to figure out if it really was the O/W or if it was the thought of being with someone else and away from my current life. I would say it was the latter but for some reason she in particular stood out to me and I have no idea why. I've had so many different women pass by me at work and in school, some very forward, but to all I have declined and shut down. But her.... I just don't know, and I pursued her, not the other way around, and it took a some time to get her to start seeing me.

I have thought about going to individual counseling also, as I have not disclosed the affair to anyone. I know that therapist have the rules set of keeping what is said in sessions private, but I feel it would somehow come out or move the direction of the MC sessions a certain way if I disclosed it, so it kind of leaves me with having to find another therapist to help me individually with this.
