Is anyone else "happy" with their H?

I have wonderful husband. Handsome, sexy, succesful, charismatic, charming -- worships me and the ground I walk on. Great father to our two beautiful children. He absolutely adores me. Our sex life is satisfying, too much so if anything, H can't keep his hands off me for the most part.
But...He works alot. Travels alot. There is a subtle underlying superior attitude and thus discreet criticism in a lot of the things he says...but not like there is anything "wrong" with my marriage. It is better than most.
Maybe it was turning 36 (somehow so much harder than 35), maybe it is that he travels so much and I feel stranded and isolated because of it but here I am obsessing over a 29 year old sexy young man. We have spent one night together (that was out of this world amazing)and I am hoping that there will be more. I feel like I am acting this way because I just so needed and wanted to be SELFISH for a change. Everything I do and everything I am is about my family -- wife, mother, mini-van driving suburban soccer mom.
So many of the postings and stories I have read here describe bad marriage. Are there others out there who really are in good relationships but have for one reason or another decided that you needed more (have your cake and eat it too...). That is how I feel. I would never ever ever dream of leaving my husband. If he ever found out it would be the end of the world. But I just want something different, new, fun, exciting in my life. Something that is entirely about ME and no one else.
I would love to hear from others out there. I need help trying to gain some perspective on what I am doing...thanks.

I'm on the same boat. I have been in my EMA for a year now and I am in love with my MM. However, I've got a great marriage too where my H and I are the best of friends. Sometimes I sit there and wonder what the heck is wrong with me. I've come to the conclusion that it all comes down to not being in love with my H. We have established such a great relationship that I view it as nothing but a great friendship to an absolutely wonderful man. I honestly don't know if I could ever leave my M since it is so good even if the intense "love" isn't there.
Thanks for your post. It's nice to know that I'm not the only one that think that I'm nuts for having a great guy and feeling that it still isn't enough.
