Reply #24: No offense, but I think you should run away. [View All]

If you Google, you can find the results of an informal survey recently conducted by...I think she was a psychologist, but I don't remember for sure, which "found" that something like 2/3 of people asked in the survey who had contacted old flames after marriage wound up having affairs for...various reasons (John Tesh talked about it a couple of months back). I realize that's not the world's most scientific reason I could give you for my belief that you should run very, very, very far away from this situation, but--I'm not surprised that a high number of people who even feel tempted to stray by a relationship they had before committing to a life partner ended up acting on those feelings. I mean, you're already feeling guilty. That should tell you something. So what if no (physical) lines have been crossed? Are you already transgressing certain emotional boundaries with the old girlfriend that you and your spouse generally don't cross with your close "friends"? Would you be upset if your spouse was doing something similar with an old partner? Seriously, bail.
