I love what you said about it being "an affair with ones own self." It is a completely selfish act, egotistical in nature. There is nothing to be gained by keeping secrets from someone you love except temporary satisfaction usually with things that hold little value. The fact that anyone is willing to risk the real opportunities to experience love, respect, intimacy and trust is truly a shame. All of the reasons I listed for secrecy aid in the unraveling of relationships. There may be sadness as you loved the person and held on to the belief that your love would be enough for them to respect and appreciate you. However, your strength and love for your self is what finally made it possible to break from being an unwitting victim caught up in the web of deceit. Good people such as yourself deserve better; peace, health and happiness is wished for you! Enjoy getting to know Marlene again as she should be, a vibrant, beautiful example of a "real woman!"

It may not have been a physical affair but an affair with one's own self. Does that make sense? I believe that at least 6/7 of your reasons given were the reason for secrecy. And here I am today. I'm still not sure it was the right move but I do know I am much happier even though there is a sadness. All I can say and as you know Jennifer, I lived with secrets and deception for several years.
