Thought about it, didn't do it, I'm 37, too old and doubt I could keep up. It would be a detriment to them.

Yes he's married but dear god it was the best sex either me or him have ever had!

Yes.
No, I didn't pursue it.
Why not? Because I'm married, and I value my relationship with my wife above anything else.
And no, I have no regrets. The relationship was neither physical nor spoken. It didn't need to be. It was enough to know that both of us felt it and that both of us knew it could work - and both of us knew it wasn't going to happen.
Age difference doesn't matter - as long as it's legal then I don't see any morality issues as far as age goes. There are practical issues, but nothing that can't be overcome.
And for anyone who is now really inquisitive about it (!), yes she's still a friend, a very good friend - the sort of friend who knows she could call me or I could call her at any time of the day or night with a real problem and either of us would be there for the other, yet neither of us would call unless there really was a big problem - and that's as far as it goes, and that's the way it will stay.
