How do you not have sexual thoughts about the sex you find attractive? As long as you don't believe the person you desire owes you attention then your secret fantasies aren't hurting anyone.In your case, your thoughts couldn't hurt the woman's marriage because,I assume, you didn't tell her.
Putting so much emphasis on your imagination cheapens the reason why adultery is wrong. It is ultimately the lie and breaking your pledge that causes problems in marriage and not the actual act of sex.
