Mistress (lover)

Mistress (lover)

In early , I had an affair with a married man who pursued me on Facebook. The most shocking thing about it was how easy it was to fall into an illicit relationship with someone who was off-limits. The highs are incredible.

In my 15 years of coaching, women have come to me over and over again with the same problem: falling for a married man. The stories always.

I blame my mother. She was the one who set me up with a married man. I was studying for my undergraduate degree in New York, and early one afternoon, I got a call from her. We kept in touch throughout my time in the city. He asked me out a few times — dinner at P. But I had been sexually assaulted while in New York, a secret I kept from my parents and which, subconsciously at least, complicated things with men for a while.

After graduation, I moved back to the UK. Then he called me at the end of completely out of the blue. I was single, am still single in fact, and was intrigued to hear from him.
