NBCWe asked members of the BuzzFeed Community to tell us their juicy stories about forbidden hookups. Here's what they shared:1. "My older stepbrother and I had sex quite often while I was in high school. We stopped whenever I went to college. We don’t talk about it anymore as we are both married now."
—Anonymous, 30, F
2. “The love of my life and I had broken up, and I was a hot mess. I moved out and moved back in with my parents. I stayed in touch with his best friend, who he considered a brother, because he lived close to me. I was sleeping with different guys just to ease the pain, and one night, his best friend made a move on me. Everything in me told me not to do it, but I was so depressed and felt like it made me closer to my ex, even though if my ex found out, any chance at getting back together would never happen. We ended up having sex, and I hate to admit that it was the best sex I have ever had. We hooked up for several months before he ended it. That spring, my ex died, and it made me hate myself even more for sleeping with his best friend. My only regret in life was sleeping with him.”
—Anonymous, 38, Female, Northeast
3. “I was his first girlfriend at 19 and popped his cherry. I also ended up popping his best friend’s cherry while he was dating someone else. Neither of them was any good, and they were not willing to learn, but the best friend kept trying to get back in my pants until a year or so ago, when I finally blocked him.”
—Anonymous, 34, WI
4. “When I worked retail in between finishing college and starting my career, I was a newly single female. I eventually caught the eye of a few male coworkers, my age and slightly older. At some point, after a bit of work, flirting with them, I went out for group drinks after shifts. I ended up sleeping with my supervisor after one of those first few outings. He did not know that I had already been randomly fooling around with two of our other coworkers at and after work. It happened a few times with him, and I stopped fooling around with the other guys. Eventually, they all left that place, and I ended up stealing the new replacement supervisor from his then-separated wife after it was obvious they were not getting back together. I left that job soon after, and he followed shortly after it became common knowledge that we were together. And we have been together since.”
—Anonymous, 38, Pennsylvania
5. “I had a boyfriend and a newborn at the time and had just landed a new job. One day, my boyfriend dropped me off at work and saw this employee outside that he knew from high school. He immediately began to tell me to stay away from him because he did not like him, blah blah blah. What he did not know was that I was already crushing on that guy. The guy had a long-term girlfriend, but we had instant chemistry from the day we met. We ended up connecting outside of work and hooking up every chance we got, in parking lots, car washes, and going home on lunch, all while having significant others. I am not proud of our beginning, but fast forward 15 years, we have two kids together and have been happily married for five years. It was the best decision of my life.”

NBC6. “I am a single mammography technologist, and I slept with a very married, much older radiologist whom I worked under directly. It happened one time, and we never spoke of it. Now we have a little secret that no one else around us knows, and just the secret feels kind of hot. People do not realize these kinds of things are always happening in healthcare settings.”
—Anonymous, 48
7. “Years ago, I worked in an emergency room. She was a patient. I took her phone number and then visited her late one night. I was single. She was married. Her husband worked the midnight shift from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. I said, ‘Are you sure he will not leave work early?’ She said, ‘He will not. I am 100% sure.’ Yes, I was scared and nervous, but we had sex. Another night, sex. A third night, sex. I was young, in my early 20s, fearful of her husband coming home at 3 a.m., with her children asleep but able to walk into their mother’s room. The third time was the last time. But pregnant sex was great.”
—Anonymous, 70, male, Chicago
NBC8. “I slept with my stepdad’s sister in two countries and five US cities. He knew and was horrified.”
—Anonymous
9. “I, a man, slept with a married man during COVID. I was 28, and he was 32, married to a woman, and had two kids. He was a nurse and used his elderly mother-in-law living with his family as an excuse to live with me during that time. Eventually, he told me he was leaving me for his wife, but that was a lie. He is now with my ex-boyfriend and cruises the local park for hookups.”
—Anonymous, 32, M, Florida
10. “We worked in the same place for a few years, and it was toward the end when we found out the company was going to shut down. My manager and I were friends and had been texting, and it got to the point of flat-out sexting in the middle of the night until early morning. We eventually met up in a hotel and had the most amazing sex of our lives, with multiple orgasms and the hottest sex ever. We both could not resist each other. We said this could not happen again, but it did happen again the next day. Then, a few weeks later, we were supposed to have a friend's trip, which his parents also tagged along on. We went on the trip and hooked up any chance we got without anyone finding out. His parents’ hotel room was right next to mine, and we did it every night in my hotel room. He had a girlfriend who is now his wife, and this went on for a few years and eventually stopped. If I wanted to call him for a booty call, he would still be up for it even now.”
—Anoymouse, 28, Female, California
11. “I slept with the father of my children 10 years after we broke up. He constantly spent the 10 years we were not together flirting and still trying to sleep with me. It was such a mind game. When I found out he was engaged, something just snapped, and I said screw it. We slept together multiple times and would FaceTime and sext all the time. I cannot tell you what happened or how it ended because it is still happening. Maybe his fiancée will find out and call off the wedding. Maybe she will not. Maybe I will tell her. Who knows...”

NBC12. “One time, my fraternity brother wanted to hook up with his then-girlfriend, and he asked me if I could hang out with his male cousin, who was visiting at the time. I agreed, and we went out to a local college bar for drinks. We ended up having a blast that night. When we got back to the fraternity house, we were both drunk and still up since we did not get back until 3 a.m., so we agreed to drink and watch some TV. When we were watching TV, a dirty scene came on, and I asked if he would ever do that. He said yes, and then we proceeded to hook up, and did so for the two weeks he was visiting.”
—Anonymous, 37, Male, Denver
13. “No one tells me what to do. We were both told by our current partners that they did not like us hanging out, and I guess that was all the push we needed to pursue it. He is a great guy who does not deserve to be treated as a trophy husband. Every post online is a brag about how good she has it with him, but she has no idea he pursued me, and I just let it happen naturally. It was so easy and effortless between us, even though we were forbidden to each other. It still is four years later."
—Anonymous, 37, female, US

14. “Lifelong friends since college, and we both married college sweethearts. We have had long talks about life in general, our possessive spouses, and how it did not used to be that way. One night, we connected intimately in his car, and I asked him if it would be okay if I took it there. He said yes with absolutely no hesitation. He got on top and took control. The sex was amazing, like a dream, even in a car with no space. I have never had that before, not with my husband or college partners. Too bad he is married to a toxic spouse who treats him like a trophy. It was a missed opportunity with someone who I could have treated right.”
—Anonymous, 38, female
15. “I slept with my cousin when we were both 18. I was staying overnight at my aunt’s house, and my cousin crawled into bed with me after we had said goodnight. She said she was adopted, which I knew was true, and it was awesome. She was totally hot, and we hung out a lot the rest of the summer just as friends, but it was really hard to control our lust in public. We probably made passionate love 10 more times before I went off to college.”
—Anonymous, Male, 65, Oregon
16. "My son got married at 24 a couple of months ago, and at the wedding, I met his wife’s sister. She was hot, about 22. We started to text, and then she texted me nudes one day. I just lost it seeing her, so the next time we saw each other, we had the best sex of my life. She just came by last week and had sex with me again. No one knows, and hopefully no one will know."
—Anonymous, Male, 66, Georgia
The CW17. "I was pregnant and abandoned by my boyfriend. I was rooming with my good friend and her boyfriend. It was agreed that after the baby, I was to move in with my parents for a short time to get proper help. My due date was close, and during my follow-up, the nurse explained the possibility of a C-section or natural birth with induction. I wanted a natural birth if possible, so I wondered how to avoid being induced at the hospital. Apparently, semen can help induce labor, but what they use is not natural and often may not work. I talked to my roommate’s boyfriend about my visit and how things worked. We had a good long-standing friendship. He was sort of quiet about my dilemma, and I was hoping he would catch on."
"He was perplexed and offered the turkey baster option, but I was not sure I could do that. We agreed on a time when we were guaranteed to be alone and tried to figure out how to proceed. I was too far along to be on top, so it would have to be on my knees. He was very nervous, as was I, but it was an amazing experience, scary but successful."
—Anonymous, 35, Female, Kentucky
18. "I work at a small business. Last year, my husband and I had split up because he accused me of sleeping with everyone, our landlord, people from church, my boss’s sons, whom I worked with, and more. None of it was true. Fast forward three months, and all our coworkers decided to go out for drinks. Bad idea. One of my boss’s sons is actually pretty hot, even though he is eight years younger than me. I ended up spending the night with him. It was the best sex ever, especially after being accused of doing it for God knows how long before."
—Anonymous, 32, F USA
19. "I hooked up with my married realtor after going through my separation and divorce. My ex-husband was always jealous of how I talked to him and about him, even though I had never thought of him that way. I decided to pursue it after I left him. It was a one-time hookup."
—Anonymous, 34, Female, Texas
20. "I slept with my wife’s best friend. Her husband was away, and we went to her place to visit. Dinner and drinks were the norm. We slept in the guest bedroom, and I got up to use the bathroom and get some water. I must have been too noisy because she came down to investigate. It was just me grabbing water. She was in a tank top and revealing underwear. I smiled, and she smiled. It was the look. We embraced and moved to the laundry room, staying as quiet as possible but wanting to be verbal. It was an amazing and thrilling experience. The next morning it was back to normal with the side-eye look."

21. "I built a friendship with a coworker who had just returned from parental leave. He was early in his marriage but unhappy, and they had a new baby. We lived in different states but ended up meeting in person on a work trip. The attraction was undeniable, and eventually, after meeting a few more times, we spent a passionate night together after realizing we might never see each other again. However, we did see each other again."
—Anonymous, 24, Female, New York
22. "I slept with my brother's best friend when I was finishing high school. We had 'dated' before in middle school and then lost contact for four to five years after I switched schools. We connected on Facebook and then began flirting and reminiscing. He told me sob stories about his girlfriend and how he was a virgin too, so we hung out and did the deed, except it was at my house at night. I would sneak him in after my family went to sleep. Every night. In the dark. He would sneak in at 11 and leave by 5. He would park a block away from our house, and we had security guards in our gated community, mind you. One time, we almost got caught because my dog was barking at him, and I sent him upstairs quickly while I shushed the dog. My brother came downstairs and scared the crap out of me. When I went back to my room, he was nowhere to be found, and I panicked, thinking he had gone into the wrong room."
"It turns out he was hiding behind my door, and his jacket brushed against my brother's arm when he was entering my room. My brother's room was right next to mine. I cannot even imagine what would have happened if my brother had turned the lights on or actually bumped into him that night. That thing still went on for another month or two, and my parents found our texts. My brother did not speak to me for a whole year and completely ignored me. It also turns out the guy lied to me about being a virgin and everything else, so yeah. I was naive, had no friends, never went out, and had no social experience, so I was not making smart decisions. That was my biggest regret."

23. "I had a really mean roommate who basically considered her hookup buddies her 'boyfriends' and said they were all off-limits. One night, she got drunk and said none of them would go for me anyway because I have hips and a butt, and she is petite. Well, with one guy, all it took was one night of flirting and a DM when she was out of town. It was the best sex of my life, and I got a second helping the next morning, to which he said I was very much his type. The next weekend, I snagged the other. Both blew up my phone for weeks. It turned out they both had girlfriends. Whoops."
—Anonymous, 36, F, DC
HBO24. "I was 20 and living at home, frustratingly. It was a really boring community and area, so I was restless, bored, and feeling adventurous. A few months in, I realized that our mailman always stopped to chat with me and was clearly flirting. Eventually, it escalated. I guess I let it happen out of boredom and curiosity. The next thing I knew, we were hooking up. Not at my house or his, but at a neighbor’s house that he was taking care of at the time. Very messed up. But at least I cannot say I had a boring life in my 20s."
—Anonymous, 21 F, Florida
25. "I have been hooking up with one of my son’s friends for years."
—Anonymous
26. "Back when I was in my early 20s, my old sitter asked if I could help her with her inherited farm. She was now a widow, and her kids were away. I volunteered to help on the weekends and stayed overnight to be more efficient. It was going to be a long project due to the age of the farm. One hot day, we worked our asses off placing fencing and were exhausted. After dinner, we sat on the porch as the day cooled off and had a drink. My back was killing me from all the labor. She offered to massage my back, like when I was a kid. Inside, I lied down, but this was now different. She started on my shoulders and proceeded to my back. She decided to straddle my hips to apply better pressure, which felt great."
"Then I noticed I could feel the heat from her crotch on my butt. I was almost in a state of panic. This was my old sitter, whom I had high trust and respect for. Yet for the last three months, we had worked as a team, and I would often find myself attracted to her. The massage turned into us having sex. After, she gave me a big hug and said, 'I needed that.' Not a word was said about that night for many weeks."
—Anonymous, 55, Male. Plano, TX
27. "When I was 18, I slept with a friend who was significantly older and had a long-term girlfriend. He knew I was single and still exploring."
—Anonymous, 18
HBO28. "Back when I was dating my girlfriend, I went to meet her at college. I waited for her to get out of class, and her friend was also waiting for her. We casually chatted, and she was the aggressor and started talking about sex. I bit, and we left to hook up before my girlfriend got out of class. This went on for some time. I have to admit she was wild and had an amazing appetite. Eventually, all good things come to an end, and I lost both of them. Luckily, I was always careful, and soon after, the friend got pregnant by her new man."
—Anonymous, 40, Male, DeKalb
29. "I hooked up with my boyfriend's twin brother on purpose. I acted like I thought it was my boyfriend, but I knew that my boyfriend had a birthmark on his neck. They look exactly the same other than the birthmark, and his nose is slanted the other way because of a fight. It was my birthday party and everyone was there except my boyfriend. When the party ended, my 'boyfriend' came and tried to apologize, but I stopped him mid-sentence by kissing him. I knew it was not my boyfriend, but I didn't care, and it wasn't even in the heat of the moment. I had been attracted to his brother the whole time, and he didn't even stop me."
—Anonymous, Female, 22, LA
30. "I was 25 and engaged when I tagged along to my then-fiancé's work Christmas party. I knew a few people there already but got introduced to a bunch of others, one of whom was this tall guy with the sexiest almond-shaped eyes I had ever seen in my life. It started with casual chit-chat, then flirting and eye-fucking from across the room. He got my socials, and we started messaging each other, and one night I eventually made my way to his place, where we did the deed. It was the best sex I had ever had in my life, and I still think about it sometimes, but we never met or spoke again after that. My relationship ended about a year later for reasons unrelated, and my ex still doesn’t know."
—Anonymous, Female, 28
31. "My best friend's brother. We were on the outs at the time. We weren’t speaking because of her husband's family drama. It just happened. Okay, it happened twice, but we have all moved on now."

32. "I dated a girl off and on for a few years and even lost my v-card to her. After we broke up, her younger brother told me he had always wanted to try stuff with dudes but wanted to experiment with somebody he trusted. We have now been hooking up in secret for 18 years."
—Michael, 39, Kansas City
HBO33. "I slept with my college’s football coach when I was a sophomore. We matched on Tinder and I snuck into his house that was right on campus. He was roommates with the basketball coach, so I had to sneak in the back door. We had an okay night. I didn’t go to football games after that because I didn’t want to run into him."
—Anonymous, 29, Female, United States
34. "I 'dated' a married man off and on for about three years. I had just gotten out of an 11-year relationship. Also, I am tall and curvy. The married guy made me feel beautiful and desirable. Every time I would date someone briefly, I would stop seeing him. Once the guy broke my heart, I would return to the married guy. After my conscience finally made me realize that I am much better than a side piece, I told him that we should just be friends. He agreed. However, I think he was cheating with someone else because he called me up one day and said that his wife would not allow him to have any female friends. That was over a year ago, and I haven't heard from him since."
—Anonymous, 52, Female, NC
35. "I had moved home from college and was staying with family until I could find a place of my own again. I was 21 at the time and had just moved from a big city back to my small town, and I was bored and depressed about being home. I spent the summer hooking up with some guys. One was my best friend's brother. We had hooked up a few times, and my friend found out and thought it was funny after a bit. I was also hooking up with this 34-year-old guy. Whenever I would go out drinking, we would meet up. I thought it was fun and mature and didn’t think anything about the age gap until one time after hooking up when I was talking about music I enjoyed and said that one album came out when I was like six or seven."
"He started talking about how good it was and that he was 17 and in high school or something. That really put the age gap into perspective. Things fizzled out after he tried to sleep with my friend a bunch of times while we were still hooking up. It was the same friend whose brother I had slept with."
—Anonymous, 22, Female, Canada
36. "My girlfriend, now wife, and I were living apart for a year because we had a long-term relocation for work. I was hanging out with a coworker I went to college with. One night I was over at her place and she just started kissing me. I ended up spending the night. I felt no guilt. It was purely physical, and we both needed to be savage. I never told my wife."
—Anonymous, 44, Male, Nebraska
37. "I knew her partner had a guys-only weekend trip, so she had the house to herself. We have been friends for 15 years. I asked if I could come over for coffee because I was going through a rough period. She said yes for coffee only. We had a deep conversation and she led me to her bedroom. We cuddled, did a lot of teasing, and explored each other's bodies with control. It was the most amazing experience I have ever had with another person. Too bad it can never be anything more."
—Anonymous
HBO38. "This local guy was in love with my mom. She didn’t want him, so he tried to set me up with his son. My mom forbade it. She didn’t want me to have anything to do with that family. As a sheltered kid, that was basically encouragement. It turned out the son was my best friend’s cousin. She set us up, we went on a date, and I hated him. That was that. A few weeks later, this random girl approached me at school trying to fight because I 'slept with her man.' I never slept with him, but she didn’t want to hear it. So the next day I hit him up, and we had the most mediocre sex. I sent his girlfriend a Snapchat of us lying in bed with the caption 'oops I fell.' It was not my proudest moment, but at the time it felt justified."
—Anonymous, 24, Female, Florida
39. "I met my best friend's boyfriend's very cool older brother when I was 17 and he was 25. I was instantly attracted to him, only to find out he had a long-term girlfriend. I watched him from a distance for years, not in a creepy way, just with young girl lust. We became friends, but that was it. I had boyfriends over the years, and then a few years later he got engaged. Fast forward and I was now 23, and a bunch of friends met up at a usual bar we hung out at and he was there. Before we knew it, we were the last two there and he was just staring at me. I finally asked what he wanted to do, and he responded with 'you.' Apparently he had been watching me while I was watching him, unbeknownst to the other. So we went back to his place and all the years of my attraction became a reality."
"He called it his last fling since he was getting married the next week, and I was perfectly okay with it. That was our one and done. Fast forward three years, and my bestie and his brother are getting married. I was the maid of honor, and he was the best man. While in the limo, with the newlyweds sticking their heads out the sunroof, he tried to sleep with me. He literally tried all night. I told him it would never happen again since he was now married, and it didn't. He's been married for over 30 years now, but that one night still makes me smirk when I think of it. Not one of my proudest moments, but a fun one."
—Anonymous, 54, Female, Chicago
40. And finally, "In high school, my cousin (straight girl) was dating a guy. This guy and I (closeted gay guy) had a strange 'cut it with a knife' tension. He'd come over often with the other guys, sleep over, nothing out of the normal, unless we were alone. Then he'd want to swap massages and wrestle with me. One night during a massage, I ended up rubbing his bare butt. It was kind of like a really hot game of 'chicken.' I could tell he popped a boner, but I wasn't out, and the fact that he was dating my cousin always had me incredibly scared. He was a smooth talker. We were both clearly scared... and we let things die off and quit putting ourselves in such positions. But the tension remained. During college, he had proposed to my cousin, but they ended up splitting up due to long distance (she later came out as a lesbian). She had moved to the States."
"But he and I remained friends. We would always hang out when I was home on break. He'd want to go out drinking, I was the designated driver, and would drive him home. One night, he wanted to sleep over, and when we got into my room, he asked if he could share my bed with me. I agreed, we ended up feeling each other up, jerking off, and I went down on him. He asked if I had condoms. I was in shock and said 'You want me to f*ck you?' and I think that verbiage freaked him out, and we just fell asleep after that. A few months later he called while I was in school, told me I needed to sit down. He said he got a girl pregnant and was marrying her. I was in shock. We remained friends, though. I visited him and his wife once when I was home. Tension remained, but we didn't act on it. We stayed close until I met someone. I remember him asking whether my partner was a good man, and I told him he was. That was the last time I spoke to him. He dropped contact, found 'Jesus,' and had two more kids. Now he's just a ghost of a memory. "
