"At this point it is just at the email stage. She is married too."

This is the sentence in the OP that gets me; and everyone seems to have overlooked.... She has his e-mail address and they have exchanged e-mails. What is the "it" to which he refers?

This smells. If you want to cheat on your wife - just do so and don't try to get someone on City Data to make excuses for you. I can just see you, reading all the post until you find the one you want to hear - then bingo - off to the races.

Being middle aged and married, I was also a little impressed that a very pretty woman fifteen years younger than me would think I am interesting and was easy to talk to. At this point it is just at the email stage. She is married too.

Any time someone is attractive and younger the sexual side comes into play doesn't it, even if there was no impression on her part that this would be an issue. Maybe she just wanted to communicate with someone new.

What is your impression?
Ask your wife and see what she thinks. Dont ask strangers in a discussion form because it doesnt matter what we say or think. Just ask your wife.

If I were you, I would. Don't let your wife keep you from meeting new people. Jesus Christ, it seems like so many people think that once you're married you can't do anything without the other. It doesn't matter what her age is or how attractive she is. Go on atleast one lunch with her to see what it's about. One lunch can't hurt unless you let it or want it too.

Not saying your wife is controlling but yea man, I don't see a problem unless you let it be one. I would do it. I love meeting new people.

If my wife/girlfriend said a co-worker(opposite sex) asked them out for lunch I wouldn't have a problem with it. I wouldn't worry about it and trust her judgement.

The responses are dependent upon you. Nobody here knows what she looks like. Who knows what it is you find attractive; that's not what's at issue as far as I can tell. You obviously care what she looks like. Since you are attracted to her then you should not be going any where with this woman. If you were not attracted to her it wouldn't be an issue imo.

Well, there's more to life than first dates for some. A healthy, stable marriage offers quite a bit more than a first date, imo and ime.
