Playing With Fire

Dear Carol-Rose: 
I am in an office romance. I can't wait to see his face in the morning. I can't wait to pick up his phone call. This is generally frowned upon by our company. We are both married to others. Secret looks touch and the excitement of forbidden is overwhelming. I am afraid of losing my job, but yet I want this to go further. I know I am playing with fire.

Dear Playing with Fire: 

It is a well-known fact that most affairs happen in the office. It is easy to make a connection because generally, so much time is spent together, and a relationship forms. It starts out as friendship and continues to the ultimate. 

Consequences can be devasting for the married partners. As much as you think you are not being observed, you are an ostrich burying your head in the sand. Eventually, it is noticed, as ultimately your feelings become evident to all around you. You could lose your job, lose your marriage. Yes, you are playing with FIRE. 

The best advice is for you to evaluate if these losses are worth it. Is this long-term? Are you both on the same page? Are there children involved? Is it just sex? Is it enough for your whole life to change? Only you, in a REALISTIC moment, can give these answers. Think carefully, as it affects many people. 
Mainly, is he worth it? 

Good Luck and Good Choices!
