I had an affair while my partner was sick

BY KIMBERLEY HIBBERT 

WHEN love is good, it’s usually very, very good, but when it goes bad, it’s horrid. And as the people below share, their desire to cheat was no respecter of even mild decency or regard for their partners.

Thomas:

It happens when she’s at a party or the movies. There’s a low-risk chance of me getting caught then.

Francine:

My cousin doesn’t even wait an hour until his babymother is gone. On weekends she goes to the country, and as soon as she leaves another woman shows up. Then another, then another. He doesn’t even change the sheets before his woman gets back, and she doesn’t suspect a thing.

Martin:

She was in the living room with her friends and there was one particular friend that I liked. We were exchanging looks and before I knew it we both ended up in a different room. No one missed us and we had sex. We continued meeting up after that.

Damion:

I had an affair while she was at a dinner function. That’s how it started anyway. It continued as she would always have functions related to work, which ended very late, so whenever she went to those events I would just link the other girl. The risk of getting caught was so low, mainly because the events ended at wee hours in the morning and she would make sure to tell me she was on her way home. So if I wasn’t finished by then, I’d just cut it short.

Luke:

I slept with her church sister last year in the third bedroom while my girlfriend was in bed with terrible chikungunya. She had visited with food and to pray, and let’s just say, things got out of hand.

Sheraine:

I was a stay-at-home mom for the last three years of an eight-year marriage. The first five years were good, as I was working and my husband and I were happy. But after the recession in 2008, I lost my job and was at home. There was a co-worker I had who would come look for me in the evenings and on Fridays when my husband was working late or out with his friends having a drink. Usually he came over when my children were at their grandparents’ home. One day we were talking and all it took was one kiss, and that sparked the beginning of a four-year affair. It ended because I migrated.

Nicole:

I started an affair when my husband left for a week-long business trip. I had been eyeing one of my co-workers who was a very nice guy. He had acted like a gentleman and provided a shoulder for me to lean on whenever my husband was being difficult or moody. When he left, I had a whale of a time.
