I am having a risky affair with the girl next door. She is keen to have kids and I’ve started to dream of the beautiful babies we’d make.
I’m 31 and I’ve had a terrible year. I got made redundant, broke my arm, then we found out my wife can’t have kids. She’s 29 and the love of my life.
I’ve since found a new job and the broken arm is fixed but there’s no hope my wife will get pregnant. She’s had all the tests and it’s down to a congenital defect. She’s as gutted as I am.
That news broke my heart and it felt like my whole world had changed.
I used to go running and keep myself fit but then I just thought “What’s the point?” I spent more time at the pub after work and our marriage was under strain. One night I was propping the bar up when I noticed the girl from next door.
She smiled at me and my spirits picked up. She’s 25 and shares her flat with a mate.
I bought her a drink and she made me forget all my hurt for a while. Closing time came and I walked her back home. She lives next door to our place.
She invited me in for a drink and said her flatmate was spending the night with her boyfriend.
I didn’t want to go home to my poor wife’s sad face so I said I would have a quick beer. It was a quick beer as I just couldn’t wait to get into her bed.
We’ve been having mind- blowing sex for a couple of months and we’ve got close.
I told her my problems and she said she’d love to have kids and she’s sure she can.
I never thought I would cheat on my wife but I can’t imagine a life without kids. I don’t know what to do.
