“Crazy as it might seem, a post-university fling with my then-boyfriend’s best friend haunts me to this day, 15 years later. My beau had moved to Montreal and his friend had recently returned to our university town for a job. Our attraction was instant, but he, too, was in a long-distance relationship. One weekend, when the friend’s girlfriend was visiting him, we all met up in Montreal at my beau’s place for an evening of fun. In our slightly inebriated state, the best friend and I snuck onto a balcony and kissed while both our significant others slept within earshot. It was so exciting and I wanted very much to be with him, but he was wracked with guilt. Our relationship would take months to escalate into a very brief affair, but ultimately both our partners found out, both relationships dragged on unnecessarily, and both ended. I still run into these guys—they’re still friends—and wonder how things might have turned out if the affair had never happened. A bit of me thinks I might have ended up with the best friend.”

“About three years ago, I was working late with a contract photographer from Sweden. I had just started dating my boyfriend. At the time, I really didn’t think I was doing anything too wrong, as, like any skeptic, I was prone to doubting the future of a perfect romance even before it had really started. And I was smitten with this photographer, so I threw caution to the wind. As the office cleared out and our workspace dimmed—well, let’s just say we did more than meet our deadline. The next day, he was back on a plane, and I was back to holding hands with my boyfriend. True love has since struck and my boyfriend and I are still going strong, but this memory comes back, rising up to sting my now fairy-tale romance.”

I'm in the fifth year of my relationship with my common-law spouse. We have childern from our previous relationships and two of our own. I have battled the temptations of infidelity for most of my relationship. But the guilt consumes me. Usually, I can get over it without having an affair, but over the years, it gets harder and harder. How can we keep our relationship alive if infidelities tempt us?

“I was once having dinner in a chic West end boîte with a man I was living with in with and found that my long term lover was waiting our table. When I went to the bathroom, he (the waiter) followed me and well, let’s just say we made fantastic—though rushed—use of a ladies room stall, the coins rattling (very) noisily in his pocket as we attempted a stealth shag as another patron came into the bathroom. He stopped—and put his hand over my mouth. Did I mention he was a fox?”

I was like you before, throw away my caution and jump into my temptations, however that does not solve your current situation. If you find your relationship is lacking in something perhaps you are not communicating well your needs to your partner. It is so easy to fall into our temptations, most of us do, but can we raise above our petty human behaviours? It is human to be tempted, but always think about the consequences, that's what I have learned from my current beau. True pure love is hard to find, once you find it, try hard to work it out, that's real beautiful than empty affairs.
