Now this is a story about two people who have fallen in love with each other but have obstacles in their lives and can't be together There's a man and a woman we'll call them Steve and Rachel.Now they are both married but not to each other, Rachel is a lot younger than Steve. Now they met some months ago and it all started as a friendship that led to what is now an affair, they talk all the time and see each other when they can. Their significant others have no idea that this affair is taking place, except Rachel's husband does have his suspicions. Steve wants to get divorced and be with Rachel but she is in a predicament. Rachel doesn't want to hurt her husband,if she leaves him he will be heartbroken. Isn't she hurting him now though? She's cheating. Now they say it hasn't gotten physical, but it's still cheating! Should they both leave their husband or wife and be with each other? Should Rachel just forget about Steve and try to work on her marriage? She says she still loves her husband, how can that be though.I want your feedback on this, what should they do??!!

The story leaves a lot of unanswered questions, like are there any kids involved in this situation? Does either party still love their spouse and want to work on their marriage? If so they should each seriously think about how this might affect their futures. However, if they are both certain they want to be with one another, the fear of hurting their unsuspecting spouses should not even be a factor. Why not? Because someone eventually is going to find out the truth, and when they do, the only thing that is going to hurt worse than discovering that their spouse was unfaithful, is knowing they were lied to for so long. That's going to hurt a lot worse than coming clean and letting their spouses go on with their life. Basically, it seems that if Rachel & Steve really love each other, they should each end their marriage. However, one thing that makes no sense at all is if these two have not been intimate before, how do they know they are right for each other? Haven't you ever met someone and spent a lot of time with them, flirting and getting to know them only to find out they were the worst lover ever?! You might have a fabulous time together, but under the sheets; that's a whole other story. Would you want to end a fine marriage only to be with someone who is not intimately compatible with you? I wouldn't!

I have an update for all of you regarding Rachel and Steve, Now Rachel has decided to work on her marriage and let Steve go. Steve is heartbroken and he says he can't live without her. Rachel is saying she is too young to get attached to someone so much older than her, she wants to work things out with her husband and build a family with him kids and all!! Lets see what happens!! Keep you posted....

I don't buy that! How could Rachel totally forget about the feelings she had for Steve? These two were in love with each other and even thinking about leaving their spouses at one point. Now she wants to work on her marriage? That's wack! I think they should both stop lying to themselves and just get on with it already. Besides, if their marriages were so good to begin with, why did they fall for each other? My advice would be for Rachel and Steve to come clean to the one's they supposedly love before it's too late. Good luck!
