Too Soon For Sex?

My wife and I seperated only 2 weeks ago and I find myself in a situation where I have the opportunity to sleep with a very beautiful woman whom I have been attracted to for months. We have been flirting around for some time now and we are at the point where the physical attraction is VERY strong.

Althought we haven't gone all the way yet, I feel like I'm ready to experience something new and exciting.

Any opinions?

    Please don't. First of all, it is adultery. You are still married. Second, it will look like you left your wife for this woman....and I suspect that is not the truth but who wouldn't assume otherwise? Third, if you would like to see this beautiful woman in the future, you will ruin all chances of that. Why? Because she will just be a rebound girl. Please take your time even though I understand it is something new and exciting. You will respect yourself more and so will she.

    Source(s): Andi - Just wanted to say your advice was right on the target. I like that you would consider the wife's feelings. I wish more women would look out for each other that way. It is hard enough for two people to make it in a marriage nowadays without some slut trying to make things worse.

    So you've been separated for two weeks, but been flirting with this girl for some time now? If you do it then you end any chance at reconciliation with your wife.

    Since it's only been two weeks and your already thinking about sex, that tells me that you've been emotionally separated from your wife for a long time. Maybe that was part of the problem with your marriage?

    My opinion is you've already done it in your mind, which to me is a form of cheating. May as well make it physical too.

    Personally, I wouldn't sleep with a married man that had only been separated from his wife for 2 weeks. I think that it's disrespectful to her, especially if she's hoping that things can be worked out without going through a divorce. If you haven't filed for divorce, I don't think you should be sleeping with other people. In my eyes, it's still cheating. Too many people "separate", have their flings, go back... "separate" again, have a fling, go back... Time to make up your mind to either move on and actually start the divorce stuff, or be faithful to your wife (as I'd hope she is right now also).

    Are you ready to give up your wife for good?

    Yes, it is too soon.

    Separated doesn't have to mean OVER. If SHE is sleeping with a cute guy right now, would you want her back?

    There will be beautiful women to tempt you your whole life, but you don't have to have them all.

    When you grow up, you will understand that taking care of ONE woman well, is a full-time job. Taking sex from lots of women is the easy way to NOT FEEL anything for anyone.

    Source(s): my husband was faithful for 28 years and finally decided he was "done." He had one fling and wifey-poo used it in court to get half his retirement pay for the rest of his life. WAIT till you are legally divorced or you are an adulterer.

    Did you possibly seperate because of this new "exciting" thing???? I had to ask........ Could you have made "hopeful" plans for this to happen.

    Okay, well here it is......if you still love your wife you should not do it based two things.

    One:Women become immediately attached to their "new" sex partner, and are you really ready for anohter replationship? Meaning this new girl will be you wo-man from there on out.

    Two: Do love your wife and see yourself NEVER back in her bed again? She will not take back used goods!

    If you have made a full hearted commitment that the marriage is over and divorce is in the works, then do your own thing. My personal opinion is that ....because you are asking this question at all,you feel like you are doing something wrong if you do it. Trust yourself! Marriage is not perfect, we make them what they are!

  • Its just lust !!! and boy you don't waste anytime moving on !!! are you sure you are completely done with your wife ? If not you may be making one of the worst mistakes in your life and if you two do decide to work things out now your going to come back in the relationship feeling guilty. Is it fair to do that to your wife , for a couple nights of pleasure with "some woman" so what if she's hot that's probably all she's got going for herself,, if it was anything more you would be asking us if its healthy to start a relationship with her and not just shacking up with her ! Think about it dude! Good luck hun :o)

    You got separated for a reason.

    Regardless of the reasons, there's only two situations I can picture.

    Either you want to get back together with your wife, or you dont.

    If you dont want to get back together, and you want to be with this other women, then whats stopping you ?

    If you DO want to get back together with your wife, but have doubts about your marriage, then take this trial separation to sow your wild oats and see if you truly want to be married. Don't expect to be forming a permanent relationship with this other woman, however, and if you DO repair the marriage, have the integrity to break off any contact except the most distant friendship with her immediately.

    If you DO want to get back together with your wife, and have no doubts about your marriage, why are you flirting so passionately with this other woman ?

    To those that would scream "OMG, HE'S CHEATING ON HIS WIFE !!!", You are LEGALLY SEPARATED. Both of you are legally, and morally, Single and un-Married. Sex with another person does not qualify as adultery.

    Yeah, maybe this little situation is why you and your wife separated to start with, huh?!? Here's the deal, if you and your wife have any thoughts of reconciling, then DON'T!!! If she finds out she'll be so very hurt, and it could thwart any chance of working out your marriage. If your not getting back together, then I guess that's your call, but rushing out of one thing and into another as the old saying goes......the grass is always greener, maybe not......think it over! Good Luck!

    I hope you are planning to get a divorce, and not get back together, because if you have sex with her, it is not a good sign for your marriage. Sex is ultimately just sex, and if you are ready to cross that bridge, then do the damn thing. Flirting is always good for your ego when you act on it, but it always comes at a price.
