Mm and I meant 15 years ago when he was separated from his wife. He assured me at the time that they were getting a divorce. Of course that never happened.

We have each tried to distance ourselves in the past, but just can’t seem to make it happen.

We have traveled together for years. And only over the last 2 to 3 years have we not been able to travel as much. We are long distance anyway and have been since the start. We live a little over two hours away from each other. Living in different states, we do not run in any of the same circles.

Hopefully this is the kind of introduction I was supposed to do if I’m supposed to get more information please let me know. If I was supposed to give less information, let me know that as well.]]>

Never done this on a forum before. Trying to sort out where I am now emotionally and where I need to go from here. I've been involved with a MM 9 years now. Longest relationship I've ever had. I've struggled with this for a long time. His wife knows me, it's I guess what a lot of ppl would call an "open relationship" or parallel relationship; his with his wife and with me. But it is not something I want long term. He knows this, he's heard it a million times from me. But I don't see it changing. I don't feel he's going to change anything in his life; he's fine w/ the status quo. 

This isn't their first rodeo with this; they have had other trysts with a 3rd person (woman) before but not long term like this. In some poly relationships I believe we'd be referred to as a V.

What hurts is how I've told him for years how I can't keep going on this way. "If you can't change it, you either deal with it or leave it" is what I usually hear and read. I'm also seeing a therapist. Just wondering if anyone else has had this experience.]]>

It’s gotten to the point where I feel like I’m just a booty call. He’s done the slow fade in the past and he’s come around when I’ve addressed my concerns with him
this last time I didn’t hear from them for a few weeks so I texted him to make sure that he was OK and he texted back and apologized and said he was very busy with work and some projects, but didn’t mention anything about getting in touch with me.
I’m really struggling with wanting his validation and resisting the urge to reel him back in like I usually do.
I just don’t want these breadcrumbs anymore, and I’m not sure if I’ve strong enough to cut the cord

He told her last year that he wants to leave but she refuses to agree to doing so amicably, and he's worried about what impact a non-amicable separation would do to his kids.  We haven't had sex as that is the one boundary we committed to upholding.  I have also convinced him to go through marriage counselling with his wife to see if there is any hope of them fixing their relationship.  They're currently going through this process and we'll see what happens.  We've put a 3-month time limit on this and we'll see where we're at after this.

I never thought I'd find myself in this situation, in a million years.  I only have a couple of very close girlfriends that I can talk to, and they are trying to be supportive but they don't love any of this - and I don't blame them at all.]]>

I'm having an affair with someone from my work. It was absolutely not planned, we just fell in love with each other. He has a family as well. Although I think the feelings from his side are true, somtimes I am just stuck between my feelings and my head. I hope to find supportive people here and a place where I can speak freely.]]>

They do not live together but spend most weekends together.  
I love our relationship. 
We met about 3 years ago as I was planning a trip and his family is from there so our mutual friend introduced us. We obviously got along very well. At the time I was married,  and when he propositioned me I declined as I love my husband.  
Fast forward to 18 months later my husband was an alcoholic,  got very sick and died by suicide.  I got a job in the same place our mutual friend worked so I reached out to Eros to say thanks for all the help planning my trip, my life imploded and if he still wanted to meet I'd be open to meeting with him.
We have been seeing each other ever since. Its sporadic due to his work, but he calls, texts or emails me practically every day. Sex is off the charts amazing,  friendly banter is fantastic and I say he keeps me together like twine and drying glue. 
We could never be really together,  I know that, even if he wasn't with his SO , financially, geographically and his religion culture are not in synch at this time. I do believe in some parallel universe we are blissfully together.  
I have already told him when his SO and him move in together I am out of the relationship.
Until then, I am enjoying every moment of attention from this amazing man There truly isn't another unique individual out there like him. And I have no regrets. Life is meant to be Lived and well loved.]]> I'm in a situationship with a man, we'll call Eros, who has a long time girlfriend that he has told me he will never leave.
