Roxanne: Fine by me. Just remember that it's fiction.
Richard: But there's always hope, isn't there?
Roxanne: No. And I suggest that you do to Marie what I'm planning to do to my man.
Richard: Which is?
Roxanne: I'm going to wrap my arms around him, drag him into bed and not only tell him that I love him but show him in every way I can think of.
Richard: Guess I'm not up to that.
Roxanne: Then I feel badly for you. I'm in love. Not the crazed and wildly passionate love that we had when we were young. That was more lust than love. This is a far better kind. Having somebody who will put up with your quirks and wacky ways, and knows what you're thinking without having to speak. Someone that you can count on and counts on you to do the right thing. I wish you well, my love. Sleep tight and try to think nice thoughts about me.
Richard: Always :)

Epilogue:
I'll freely admit that it wasn't easy reading that last message, because something kept clouding my vision. I don't know if they continued chatting, because I haven't checked back since then. Frankly, I'm not even that curious about it any more.
I was wrong to invade her privacy. Maybe someday I'll tell her what I did, but for right now I'm going pretend none of it ever happened. When you're married, especially later in life, you need some space. Places to go where you can let your guard down and let your fantasies run wild.
Roxanne deserves that, just like I do. If chatting with this guy does the trick in that way, good for her. I have literotica, my special place to leave the world behind and let my imagination take over when I assume this justlikeewe persona.
All the rest of the time, in the real world, I'm all Roxanne's and hopefully, she feels the same way about me. I've figured out that without having faith and trust in each other, there's no point in any of this.

Thank you for reading. I would love to hear from you about what you thought about it all. I would appreciate it if you make them public comments, and making them anonymously is fine too.

kirei827 days agoIf you are too ashamed of your actions, thoughts, and words to share them with your spouse, then you are having a full blown emotional affair. They are as damaging to a relationship as a physical one, sometimes more. You never had her tell her husband but he knew. The not telling would work on me over time and fuel suspicions. So, I can't agree with your ending. Sorry.
Anonymous10 months agoThe wife should have got some commen sence in her. She should not have been chating with her old boyfriend in that intimate way. i think I would have confronted her long before the end and told her to quit the chatting or get lost.

lflyer82about 3 years agoI liked this story a lot. I love happy endings. I enjoy well written stories. I was drawn into whether she would or wouldn’t to the point that I stayed up late just to find out how it would end. Some commenters felt she was not being fair to her ex but remember he just dropped her cold, as teens, so he doesn*t get any sympathy from me. Maybe this will wake him up to what he has at home but I doubt it since he managed to get in that he has had lots of women, maybe even while married.
Anyway if it was real life I hope the author and his wife really are living happily ever after.
