Dear Steve and Shirley,
I'm married to a great man that looked good and had everything going for him except in the bedroom. I told myself that sex wasn't everything, and I managed to make it for three years without cheating, up until our wedding.
I was sleeping with my daughter's father because we already had history. I was comfortable with him. Some would say too comfortable because we were not using protection. My husband and I had sex maybe once a week, and that was all for him because he's on the smaller side.
I was sleeping with my ex at least three times a week, and then we had a pregnancy scare and it scared me half to death. I was not going to risk the good life over great sex.
My ex got married last year, so we'd see each other to pick up only to pick up our and drop off our daughter.
That all changed two days ago.
I went to pick up my daughter, and my ex said his wife is out of town and he wanted to show me how they painted my daughter's room. My daughter was watching TV in the family room. That man did not take me to our daughter's bedroom. He took me to this huge storage area by his bedroom, and he locked the door. My husband called at that very moment, and I told him I had something to do first and I'd be home soon.
I had to have sex real quick. That's what I had to do. It was so so, so so good.
I got myself together, and my daughter and I left by the way home. My daughter asked why we were locked in the closet. I tried to convince her that she was mistaken. She is a very outspoken eight-year-old, so I'm sure she'll ask again. What do I tell my child? And what if she asked me in front of my husband?
