Torn

I understand how adultery happens. I know, your first thought is: “Of course you can - you’re a cheater.” That’s true, but that’s certainly not the whole story.

That’s always what a cheater says, right? Once again, you are correct. If you’re looking for a typical romance, then run - run far.

After 10 years of marriage, I realized my husband barely touched me anymore. There was the obligatory monthly sex, but even that was starting to fizzle. I was 29, and he was 32. We should’ve been doing it like bunnies, night and day, or at least a couple times a week, to be more realistic. But that hadn’t happened in years.

It didn’t hit me until I’d been gone a couple of weeks. Then when I got home, we both fell asleep that night, me snuggled up against his back like we always slept. But that’s all we did. We just...slept.

No big deal you say? Wrong. It was a very big deal. It was the night I realized we had a real problem.

I have a choice to make, but I'm so torn. Do I stay where I'm at, or do I go with Kaden, with the man who's showing me I still have a lot to live for?
