The young man jumps to hug him and breaks down in tears. The chances are if you did stay at your sister’s and she was called into work, it would happen again and become a regular thing. One young man in central California got the surprise of a lifetime when his older brother, who’s in the military, came home. If you stay quiet, you have to live with it.
If you come clean, she’ll either dump her husband and your relationship will never be the same, or she’ll stay and cut you out. This might be one of those times, if you can guarantee it won’t happen again. I’m not condoning what either of you did, but sometimes ignorance is bliss. What’s worrying is that you can’t stop thinking of him. I think you know in your own heart that if you have any chance of having a relationship with your sister in the future that you a) can’t revisit it b) you can’t stay the night at hers again and c) you can’t tell her what happened. You’re also married yourself, so you’ve cheated on your own hubby as well as betrayed your sister. However, it’s just terribly sad that you’ve chosen your sister’s husband to live out this fantasy with. You might have wanted to prove that you’re still a sexual being and attractive to men. Maybe it’s connected to going through the menopause in your 40s. I’m also 50 now and have been through the menopause, so what’s happening to me? This is weird for me as I have never been the sort of person to take matters into my own hands before or do anything impulsive.
Since then nothing has been mentioned about this by either of us – it’s as if it never happened – but I can’t stop thinking about him.
