  Does your husband know about him? Do you find yourself looking forward to when you get to talk to him next?

  Here's the thing: There is such a thing as an "Emotional Affair" and it occurs when say, 2 people meet on the internet and things progress from friendship to actually having very private and intimate conversations. Without realizing it, you can start pulling away from your husband and start paying more attention to this friend. You just need to be extra careful because like most mistakes, you don't realize how you ended up destroying everything. It happens fast and without warning.

  Kat, yes my husband does know about my friend.

  I really do not think about my friend during my day except when I get online and I'm paying bills or checking emails. So I guess the answer to your second question would be No, I do not think about him unless I'm talking to him.

  Thanks for the warning. I appreciate it and I will make sure to pay extra attention to my friendship with him. I am Happily married and not looking for anything other then a friendship.

  I think you need to be sharing these conversations with your hubby only, I think it is a bad idea and I wouldnt feel right about doing it myself.

  jean i agree with kat only because my husband had an emotional affair, i know for a fact thats how it all started...a friendly chat turned into something else. please be careful and watch out for any sign that your getting involved emotionally. its a very painful, devastating affair...

  I think you your self feel conflicted on this situation because you took the time to post. I think you probably know that it can be a problem, maybe not initially but this relationship can blossom into something more for sure. You mentioning locations and stuff even sounds to me like you almost need to establish barriers that are somehow going to serve as a boundary. I would be skeptical if you were my wife.
