English term or phrase: to have an affair with someone

Greetings,

The sentence I am hoping to translate:
Dorothy Macmillan had an affair that lasted 30 years.

http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/the-prime-minister-h...

Of course, ‘affair’ is a euphemism for repeated acts of adultery. What euphemism do you use in Iran, if any?

Best wishes, and many thanks,

Simon

با کسی همخوابی داشتن

Explanation:
همخوابی داشتن is a euphemism for "to sleep with someone".

Example sentence(s):

دو نفر همانطور که عادت می کنند سر ساعت بخصوصی گرسنه بشوند، می توانند عمری از روی عادت با هم همخوابی داشته باشند.
اما تنها ایه که درآن ازسنگساردر قران نام برده شده است و به جامانده ، سوره مایده است که درمورد زن و مرد یهودی استند که بدون ازدواج با هم همخواب�

با کسی رابطه پنهانی داشتن

Explanation:
affair (RELATIONSHIP) /əˈfeəʳ/ US /-ˈfer/
noun [C]
a sexual relationship, especially a secret one:
She's having an affair with a married man.
The book doesn't make any mention of his love affairs.
an extramarital affair

The word عاشقانه can also be added to the suggested phrase;
رابطه عاشقانه پنهانی با کسی داشتن

آرنولد این تصمیم را پس از آن می گیرد که خبر رابطه پنهانی وی با زنی خانه دار و داشتن پسری سیزده ساله از او، خبرساز شد.
