A Late-Night Encounter I Regret

Since my divorce last year, I’ve found myself struggling to maintain boundaries. Last week, after a particularly lonely night in my office, I had a moment of weakness and crossed a line with one of my students. She’s bright and attractive, but she was just there to seek advice as usual. It felt like an innocent conversation until I couldn’t resist the urge any longer. We left the building together and... well, let's say I didn't stay professional that night. Now, every time I see her in class, guilt eats away at me knowing what I did was completely wrong.
