Over twenty years ago, I had an affair with the wife of a friend.

I truly believed I loved her — maybe I did.

Both our spouses found out.

I ended up getting divorced and later remarried.

She is still married to my old friend.

I have never called her or him to apologize, but I deeply regret the emotional pain that everyone went through.

I would like to ask her for forgiveness, but I don’t want to cause more problems.

Lord, please forgive me for my sins.

I pray that she and my old friend are happy and have gone on with their lives.
