Married man & I email each other for intellectual stimulation--is this wrong?

Question

We email each other often at work. The emails are never really about anything else but current events & music, stuff that intellectually stimulates us. Yes, we somtimes innocently flirt, but rarely and we never have done anything inappropriate in the several months we've been friends, i.e., we haven't gone to lunch even though there were a couple of invitations and rarely do we see each other. We are both quite bored at work and no one seems to get the humor and smart discussions we have (everyone here at work is so boring). If this is wrong, please tell me, but I don't think it is, as we've never overstepped the line in all of these months we've known each other. Thx.

Answer 1

Well not to give sad news but yes that is wrong you really shouldnt email a married man thats bad his wife could find out and you could b in a lot of trouble so my advice dont email him you can talk but dont email

Answer 2

Hi there. I have had relations such as this in the past, and feel it is not wrong as long as it stays within the boundaries set. If innocent flirting turns to more serious flirting, I would put the stop on it. Keep it as impersonal as possible and you should be fine. I had one case where he kept wanting to meet for lunch and I had to kindly tell him it would not be fair to me or his wife.

Answer 3

No you can still be friends with a  married man as long as that is as far as it goes.  If you find you start to develop feelings for him, it is a sure sign that you need to walk away and end this friendship.
