Longtime Affair

LONGTIME AFFAIR APPEARS SET TO LAST FOR LONG TIME TO COME

DEAR ABBY:

I'm married; he's married. We're in love and have been for eight 've tried breaking it off several times over the years, but a force biggerthan both of us keeps bringing us back together.

I never believed in soulmates or true love until we met. Our love is deepand unconditional; our roots are intertwined. It's a shame that it happened latein life, but it happened nonetheless. He treats me like a queen. Neither of usis leaving our spouses or family. We are both in our 50s and sometimes act likewe're in our 20s. It's magical!

Is it wrong? Do we go on until something changes? Do we try for the 100thtime to break away? An affair, no matter how you slice it, will never beaccepted in the eyes of traditional society, so it will be perceived asunacceptable. What's your opinion?
