Dear Christine,
I WANT TO encourage women who have their eyes set on other women’s husbands to leave these men alone. All that glitters is not gold, and most of the time the wife is having problems with the husband because of his lifestyle and ways.
Here’s my story. I’m in my mid-30s and have no one to confide in. I couldn’t find any available men, so last year I ended up having an affair with an unhappily married man. A few months later, his wife kicked him out.
This had nothing to do with us, but I gladly took him in. Now, I am regretting this move.
I regret not getting to know him first. His children refuse to speak to me, and he doesn’t want any more children. I am childless. His oldest child is 18 and he is 42.
My family dislikes him and warned me about getting involved in the first place. His relationship with his own family is poor, and he has no close friends.
I’m beginning to understand why he was unhappy in his marriage, but it’s too late to give him back to his wife.
I feel stuck with him and cannot leave because we’re in my house.

Dear TC,
You’ve certainly learned your lesson. There is never a good enough reason to get involved with somebody else’s husband. You’re learning first-hand and the hard way.
You’re not trapped, as you think. He’s not your responsibility and you can ask him to leave. It makes no sense trying to correct your wrong by compounding the situation.
Have the guts to send him packing and leave married men alone.
– CHRISTINE
