Yes sex with someone you are not married to that is what adultery is.

If she lied to you about the fact that she was married you are in the clear. However, if you continue to sleep with her after you find out that she is married you may have gone against your own personal ethics. I don't know how religious you are or what your faith is, but some christian religions beleive that sex with anyone before you are married is considered adultery. If you have a heavy heart about it break it off and say some prayers. God is all loving and will forgive you. We all fall short of the ideal way to live but as long as you realize what you did was wrong and correct the issue you have learned from it and that is the whole point to life. Learning through our mistakes and not repeating them. If you continue doing this knowing it is wrong you are living in sin and it will tear you apart inside. If you love this woman make it clear to her that you cannot be with her until you are the only man in her life.

A married person commits adultery if he or she physically engages in sexual acts with someone who is not his or her spouse.
thou shalt not commit adultery. (Old Testament writings cited by Jesus: Mat 5:27-30, 32; Mat 19:9, 18, 19; Mar 10:11,12, 19; Luk 16:18; Luk 18:20; Joh 8:1-11.) KJV

It is not for me to judge you. But read what Jesus said about adultery in Matthew 4:27-31. "You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery'. But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.If your right eye causes you to sin, gauge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell". This is not an excuse in the eyes of the Lord, that you never knew she was married.

I would say that it's not considered a sin on your part if she didn't tell you that she was married. As long as you were single, you didn't do anything wrong. But, I would be sure to terminate the relationship that you have with this woman now that you know that she's married. It's hard, I know, but if she gives you any hassle when you're breaking off the relationship, tell her that you feel betrayed that she didn't tell you that she's married, and if she tells you that she'll get rid of him for you, don't believe it - if she'll do it for you, she'll do it to you.

If anything is a sin, it's disrespecting yourself, and forfeiting your naturally given gifts. Devoting yourself to these delusional fantasies would be a sin under that guideline, would it not? The fault lies with her if you didn't know she is married;however, if you're a friendly Christian, aren't you sinning by not waiting for marriage? Here, next goal, find some strength from within and stop hiding.

if u didn't know she was married she's the one sinning mostly.
Now the question is what ur position is now that u know she is.
But if YOU r married then u're committing an even bigger sin. besides i think having sex outside marriage is a sin.
start thinkin dude!!

Are YOU married? If so, then that's adultery on your part. As it stands, she's the one that committed adultery since SHE's the married one. Sounds like you haven't done it yet anyway based on how you phrased your question.

i think adultery is exclusivly reserved for the married, those outside of marriage are considered fornicators, i did not make the rules, as long as there is one married person involved, say the scriptures say if a ;person marries a divorced person,it is committing adultery, so there you have it, divorced people,
