Okay, Im very confused. I'm not a "o holy, individual but I do know what's in the Bible and somehow I feel like I'm disobeying my heavenly father in a way that I can't even understand. I'm in love with a married man and I know he loves me too. He is currently the only father figure in my 5yr old life, he spends every chance he gets with me and my daughter. We go out all the time as a family. It feels perfect but deep in my heart it hurts because I feel as though he isn't mine to love.

So why are you confused. Obviously you know it's wrong. You have to realize he's not leaving her for you. Put yourself in his wife's spot... how would you like it?

You are doing your child a terrible disservice. You are deceiving her and when she matures she will not trust you, or men for that matter, she may grow to hate you for lying to her.

This man is not, and should not be a father figure. He is a deceptive liar. He will never be available to her 100% the way a father should be because he has another family to take care of.

You already know this is wrong or you wouldn't be asking.

Get your own man to love and be a father figure and lose the pretender. This love is not healthy for you or your daughter.

It's a total sham of a family.

"he spends every chance he gets with me and my daughter" - Where is his wife? You know the woman who is the victim in this case.

If you know its wrong then why do it? If he were to break up with his wife, do you really think he won't cheat on you?
