Story Peeps Change Lives

Unexpected Affair At Work

Written by Kelly

It must have been almost 6 months ago now.  My place of work is small, only 80 employees or so.  I am one of the youngest employees, and am bold enough to say I'm pretty attractive.  That being so in addition to being a tall thin girl, I get a bit of extra attention.  At the time I was living with my NOW ex.  And, I was as well regularly in contact with my former coworker at the bank I worked directly prior to my current employer.

I received an email, out of the blue, from a coworker of mine.  We had not spoken more than two words since he started months prior....  We started to email back and forth on a regular basis.  His personality was so different, so refreshing, from the standard within our office.  The humor, the sarcasm, the love of art.  

My boyfriend and I had not been on loving terms for at least a year.  Sure, I cared about him.  But the passion, the greater love beyond all else, that was gone.  My coworker and I had begun to establish this bond.  This sort of soul connect.  Everything we talked about, every conversation we had, it was as though we could see through everything.

I found out he was married by chance.  I overheard a conversation he had with someone visiting the office and confronted him about it.  He admitted to me the truth, that he was in fact married, unhappily so.  I accepted it, knowing that I was, as well, in a committed relationship and living with my partner.

We would call each other and chat when either my boyfriend or his wife were being unbearable.  We developed an extremely close friendship quite fast.  Between our emails at work, we somehow agreed to getting a drink after work.  And we did.  I had a few beers, he had a few martinis, and the conversation never seemed to die.  We both loved it.

He invited me and a few coworkers out one night.  I brought my sister and some friends, however, no one else from work showed.  That night everything became so much clearer.  We were sitting at a table, having a good time.  A few martinis later, he was quite close to me, with his arm around me.  It got to the extent that his friend asked if we were dating when he got up to use the rest room.

A few days later, after tailgating with my sister for the day,  he called and agreed to meet me at her house.  When he got there, I met him at his car.  Then, we kissed.  The most amazing, heartfelt, passionate kiss I've ever experienced.  This was how the night went.  Embracing and kissing whenever we had a moment alone.

This continued on for months.  We would go get lunch together just for a secluded moment in the elevator together.  We would grab dinner together on random nights.  There were stolen kisses in the back stairwell behind our office.  We even progressed to taking a 15 to an empty parking lot to give oral.

Somewhere in toward the start of all of this, I confronted my boyfriend.  I couldn't tell him I loved him.  Not at all.  I moved out.  This, of course, lead to less guilt with my coworker and more forwardness to my wants with him.

Once the sexual acts began, he started to treat me with a male attitude about that made me feel as though I owed this to him, and that's all I was good for.  After being in a non-loving relationship and now being treated as though I was only a sexual play toy, I couldn't take it.  I told him that I was afraid to confess as he would tell me I was "too sensitive" but he was making me feel like I was very subpar and quite worthless except for my sexual actions toward him.

This ended it all.  We stopped talking for about a week.

Since things began to fall, I started to pursue other options.  I have since found a guy that I very much get along with and have recently started dating exclusively.

I call it getting whats missing. I have been married for 7 years, but I cant have all that I want. I do on occasion get what I want, but I would never leave my wife. Any woman that spends time with me, knows it is what it is. Nothing says a friendship cant grow from it.

0 #1 People Cheat For A Reason — Just_My_Thoughts 2010-07-22 12:50

I was married, I thought and still do, that my ex cheated. I did. In the end I did some research. Most people blame the person cheating, but every one has to realize that you cheat for a reason. Something is missing, my reason, I loved him in a caring brotherly way, I was not in love with him, it was a marriage of convenience, there no tender moments, no I love you's, there was nothing, just a male and female being friends who had sex once in awhile. You are not alone, with me it was the other way, I was a married woman who had an affair.
