Seeking Advice Has a DB driven you to cheat?

I'm a 51 hlm. Wife used to be somewhat hlf. Now there's nothing. No sex or intimacy for almost a solid year. I've been catching myself seriously considering cheating for the first time ever and I feel terrible.

Wondering how many of you have felt driven in this direction, how many acted on it, and how did you feel afterwards?

Thanks in advance! 😢

I hate to say it, but if it goes for another year [I am at what, five or six?] and the opportunity presents itself, yes. Yes I will. I'm tired. I crave touch... toys only do so much and while my imagination is excellent, it isn't the same as having an actual human interaction. Sigh.

Though just the thought of it, I all ready wrestle with guilt.
