Dear Fonseca,
My son is a freshman in high school and has asked a girl he likes to homecoming. She accepted. The dance and homecoming weekend are in several weeks. My high school boyfriend was not on social media until seven weeks ago. He is coming in for the homecoming football game and has asked me to dinner. I'm happily married, but haven't told my husband that I've been speaking to my ex-boyfriend for a month and a half or that I've accepted his offer to go to dinner. Is it wrong that I'm keeping this a secret and just for myself? It's exciting and enthralling. I kind of feel like I'm doing something wrong even though nothing physical has happened. Am I in the wrong? Is this cheating or just harmless flirting? I'm confused and full of emotions..
