I am not proud of what I'm going to admit, but I was having an affair with a married man for the last 7 months... and he was just tragically killed when a car ran into him on his motorcycle. He was a truly wonderful man who lightened up any room when he walked in. There was about 1000 people at his funeral to celebrate his life - he seemed to know everyone! He left behind a wife of almost 30 years, a daughter and two grandkids whom he loved so much. I too am in a long-term relationship, so it's been hard to hide the grief that I am suffering. They were friends as well.
I am the secret that no one really knows about, so it's extremely difficult to talk about what I'm going through and just how much I cared for this man. He was 48 years old - far to young to die. We had an intimate relationship and shared so many laughs and... just the little stuff... we just made each other happy for the moments we were together. It pains me that he is no longer here and we will never share a moment together again. I feel deep sadness for his wife and daughter and can't even imagine what they are going through.
I don't even know why I'm writing this on here, but I just don't know what to do with myself. I feel so completely lost. How do I cope in this situation?
