I am 26 years old and my husband is 37. We have been married for 5 years and we have a very good relationship. At the end of the street where we have a house lives a man. He is 58 years old and has been single since his wife left him. He is a gardener and I sometimes pass by his yard on my way home. My husband and he know each other, but my husband does not know that I have been in love with him since I was a teenager. He was friends with my father, and stood by me when my father died of a heart attack.

I was coming home from shopping one day, and he was walking out the door. I had just changed my hair style, and he complimented me on how beautiful I looked with the new look. I blushed, as I had been waiting for such a comment from him for some time. He came next to me and took my hand. He then kissed me on the lips. I was shocked at first, but returned the kiss.

He took me to the salon, and we ended up making love on the carpet. He was very passionate, and I gave my all to him, but I felt so guilty after we were done. After we were done I got dressed, and mumbled that I should go now that the rain had stopped. I went home and showered before my husband came home from work. I can’t stop thinking and worrying about what I did. I want to tell my husband, but I’m afraid he’s going to hurt her. Should I tell you, or keep it a secret? It happened only once and it will never happen again, she concludes
