True Stories from Women about Their Biggest Secrets Mrs. B "As satisfied and gratified as I am, as happy as I am, I'm still not convinced that I wouldn't cheat on my husband somewhere down the road. I think after you've cheated the first time, you come to know the type of person you are." Mrs. C "My relationship with my lover has allowed me to live my life in the present, perhaps with greater happiness than I would have had otherwise. In other words, I suspect that my marriage would have ended long ago if not for my affair." Mrs. E "I'd be surprised if my husband and I are together a year from now. Then I think about the kids coming home for the holidays and I don't know that I could leave. I can't think about Christmas and Thanksgiving and things like that without our family together." Mrs. H "I have made a happy life for myself that is comfortable, and I don't feel guilty about my extramarital affair. I am truly happy. After all, I am still married, and that's what I always wanted." Mrs. X "Did I waste the best years of my life not indulging my fantasies, my libido, my romantic notions?" Mrs. Z "I don't want to betray my husband. I don't think he deserves that sort of treatment. This is why I stop myself. Sometimes I feel so guilty just for my thoughts that I can't imagine what the guilt would be like if I ever slept with my fantasy for real."Gertler, Stephanie is the author of 'To Love, Honor, And Betray The Secret Life of Suburban Wives', published 2005 under ISBN 9781401301187 and ISBN 1401301185.
