Couldn't help myself
I have fallen totally and completely and madly in love with my daughter's new best friend. She and her parents just moved here, and into our condo development, right before school started this year. She and my daughter immediately became best friends (as did my wife and her mother) and they started spending all their time together, which meant they were here at our house all the time. They are both seniors in high school, both 18 (and in case you're wondering, 17 is the age of consent here), and both plan to attend the same college (here in town) next fall. I was attracted to her from the first, and I tried my hardest not to allow any feelings to develop for her, but within three months of their family's arrival, I was overwhelmed. She's all I can think of, and I am genuinely in love with her. Nothing at all has happened between us (except for my fantasies), and it probably never will, both because of the age difference. But the fact remains, I love her, and I don't see that ever changing. Her name is Audra, and I even love that. I never even felt this strongly about my wife.
Mid.Life.Crisis.
It does seem like that, but it's not that. It's real, true, deep, forever love. LOVE.
