I've got an odd one here, sure it not unique but it's been an insight for me.
I met a someone a few weeks back in a work meeting who i was attracted to and she showed attention towards me. She made the effort to walk with me after the meeting to talk, lots of smiles etc.
Following this I and a dream last week. It was nothing but a dream about a date with her and going for a meal. But in this dream I was the happiest I had been in a long time. I was feeling those crazy first thoughts of when you first start dating. And I woke up feeling great.
Today I met her again today. At a work meeting. Again I could tell she was looking at me when i was not looking up etc. and when I Ieft we exchanged kisses on the cheek. All innocent, business etiquette. When she walked away she looked back and smiled.
So, I know I am not in a good place emotionally, certainly not the right time to be having feelings for somebody, but the fact is the attention I recieved and my feelings to her have sparked something inside of me. Simply because I am feeling betrayed and let down by my W.
So what's my point?. No, I am not taking this any further I am in this to save my M and keep my family together. But the reason I am sharing this is that it does show how easy it has been for my W to be tempted by this OM. I have seen things from my W pov at an extreme.
Not sure it makes me feel any better, but just wanted to share it.

I feel like I'm in thick forest, I'm slowly drawing a map of the way out, but not sure yet which side of the forest I will emerge.
