I Work As A Nanny And Slept With The Dad. I Don’t Feel Good About It

I feel ashamed of myself and can not get past the guilt I feel. This past weekend, I slept with my boss whose six year old daughter I nanny for. I’ve been with this family for a year and have seen first hand how horrible the mother treats the father — always calling him names, telling him he’s a loser, emasculating him. He ALWAYS looks exhausted and beaten down, almost like there is no life left in him. I think they’re still together for the sake of the daughter.

The dad is a wonderful man, very kind. He loves his daughter very much. He pays me my full salary even when they don’t need me for the day and always tells me how much he appreciates me providing care for his daughter.

The mom was away for the weekend on business and the dad went out with his friends for the evening to get away. I had put the daughter to bed a few hours prior to him coming home and was on the couch when he arrived. It just .. happened. We were intimate. I loved it. So did he. Two days later, I feel guilty as hell for what I’ve done, but I truly have grown to like the dad. He doesn’t deserve the kind of treatment that the mother dishes out to him.

I am not going back to work until Wednesday, but he sent me a text today stating that he feels alive again and that he does not want me to quit as the nanny. As I said earlier, the daughter is a very sweet girl, and I want to stay with them.

There is absolutely no excuse for what I have done, and all I can say is that I truly felt terrible for the dad who was emotionally broken. Should I just quit as the nanny or secretly cut off the affair and continue working for them?
