I was a happily married man, and I wanted her badly. She was my first love, the one who left me at a park bench as I still craved to see her face. I hated that she was married, especially to a loser like her husband. The sad part was I only could see her once a year at the picnic, but I thought about caressing and making love to her all the time. I thought about her even while I was having sex with my wife. Yes, I thought about licking every place on that woman’s body while I was making my wife orgasm. I think my wife knew I was thinking about another woman, but she never said anything. I admired my first from a far. I followed her on her job, watched her arrive home, and I even studied her husband's work schedule and movements just to know things to say to throw him under the bus when I was ready to make my move. Ironically, I knew I wasn't that kind of guy and I sure didn't want to be.
I loved my wife but lusting over my first love overwhelmed me. Both were my addictions and my temptations.
