I’M TEMPTED TO CHEAT ON MY HUBBY...

Dear Coleen

I’ve been with my husband since we were both 17 and we’re now 35.

I am happy with him and we have three lovely children, but over the past year, I’ve started to think about what it would be like to be with someone else.

I guess things have just become a bit boring. Our kids are older and we just seem to be in a mundane routine of working and looking after children. I can’t imagine doing this for the rest of my life.

Recently, I had a weekend away with my friends and got talking to a guy in a bar. I flirted and enjoyed the attention, but that’s where it ended.

Now I can’t stop thinking about that night, and although I love my husband, I want to feel that thrill again. I’m thinking more and more about having sex with another man. What can I do?

Coleen says I get it, you’re bored and you loved the attention from another man.

But you have to remind yourself what you have to lose and also that you’ve managed to create a life that a lot of people spend years trying to achieve.

If you did sleep with someone else, I’m pretty sure you’d regret it.

So, before you have a one-night stand or an affair, make an effort to reignite that fire in your marriage.

Things might be dull, but you share responsibility for that and it’s within your power to change it.

You have to start thinking of ways to connect with your husband again.

You could have a lot of fun putting the romance and sexiness back into your marriage. And at least you know you will have tried before throwing in the towel.
