Okay, had to steal Andreas phrase- but anyway, here's my deal:

I'm recently been exchanging emails with this guy through work, I've never seen him and don't know him in any way, - somehow, I don't know how exactly but we began exchanging emails and they became a little personal. Not in any kind of sexual way- nothing "out of lines' but more along the, "tell me about yourself" kind of way. I have a boyfriend and would NEVER cheat- I don't do that, but I find myself constantly checking my emails for messages from this guy and getting excited when I get a new one from him- plus- everything he says is almost .....geeeesshhh... I don't know, like "all the right things". So my question is, anyone have this happen? should I cut off contact? Is this leading into dangerous territory?

:danger: :danger:

Even if you are clear on your end, is he?

LL, I think it's time to ask yourself, " what would the Hollywood Exes do?"

Nah, okay- kidding aside , for real: RUN. For what reason would you even entertain this scenario in any way?

I know ! I know! Why am I getting into this? I don't know! I just can't help checking my emails and smiling as I read a new one....

I'm with my bf and not going anywhere- but damn! This guy is so smart and so interesting!

You are cheating by having contact with this guy you have never seen or no nothing about. You should cut contact.

You are being manipulated by him. Runnnnnn !!!

Okay, you know what? Girl, you got urshers (issues)

Laura what the hell are you doing?

You cannot place yourself in a situation where you know damned well you might succumb to temptation. Hell, if you love Old Dude as deeply as you say, then you won't be entertaining the idea of having contact with Mr. Smart & Interesting, period. You'd better put Mr. S&I down like a sick cat and keep it moving. In fact, it might be time for you and Old Dude to go away for a weekend and rekindle some magic!

If you care about your relationship with your boyfriend then you need to cut off contact with this man. It's obvious there's some attraction there and even though you may feel these "email exchanges" are harmless right now, if you keep going on with it, it WILL do you more harm than good. It starts with email exchanges, to meeting in person, to going out for lunch, to going out for happy hour, to meeting up in hotel rooms. If this guy already knows you have a boyfriend, then he's clearly manipulating the situation. Trust me, I've been there and I ended up cheating emotionally on my boyfriend at the time and was very very very close to cheating physically though I stopped everything right before that happened. If you are all giddy and looking forward to this man's email responses right now, then the problem has already started..you are somewhat already cheating emotionally without realizing it. Cut everything off now and you'll thank yourself later.

Thank you MissFee and everyone - all good advice.

Yes, we may have some issues- he works ALL the time, all week, all weekend, on call at night, those are our issues so we do need to go away for a weekend or something!

Yeah, I'll just have to cut off contact

You're welcome. Good luck with you and your boyfriend. Hope you two are able to work things out.

That's the ticket!

Until then find other distractions to entertain yourself with other than the online guy. He's trouble.
