I think in most cases person doing the IA ***knows*** that the affair partner isn't reciprocating. For example, I can have a torrid IA with Natalie Portman but I know she isn't reciprocating.

But what would you call it if I ***actually believed*** Natalie Portman was reciprocating in some fashion? Is it still just an IA? Or is it a DA/HA?
