Years ago I had an affair with a young married woman. Her husband found out and confronted me. I would have completely understood if he had taken a swing at me and in fact I would have even had some respect for him if he had. Instead he came and started sobbing about how much he loved her and pleading for me to stop seeing her. Did not issue so much as an “or else.” I cannot put into words into how much contempt and disdain that made me feel for him.

Don't you have regrets now that you're older and.......... hopefully wiser?

I do have some regrets about the whole thing. Even though she has been a good wife for years I do regret being one of the reasons her reputation was so smeared. I even regret her husband losing such a beauty in the end. But I still find the fact that a man would seek out his wife's lover only to plead and grovel disgusting though. To this day I wish he had swung at me. Punched me. Done SOMETHING. It was his wife I was doing and he would have been well within his rights.
