It sounds bad. And I know it is.
Me: in a relationship with a great guy x 4 years
Him: Married x 7 years + children
Ok. I'm not asking whether I should continue talking to this married man or not. I know I shouldn't. This is a guy I met 6 months ago...we have not had physical contact (kissing/touching/sex) but we talk all day every day. We have shared hundreds of emails and texts in the past few months, including many flirtatious/sexual conversations.
Prior to meeting this man my relationship with bf was great. I thought I wanted to marry him and be with him forever. Obviously I don't feel that way anymore. I don't plan on having a physical affair with this married man but I'm wondering if I should continue my relationship with bf or end it. I just think that if I really loved him (bf) as much as I thought I did I would have never became interested in anyone else. Ever since meeting 'married man' I just don't feel the same love I used to feel for bf. I don't feel like we have much in common and I am not very excited about a future with him.
I care about him a lot but I think it would be selfish for me to stay with him knowing that one day I may become interested in someone else and break his heart. I've never cheated on him but If the man I have been talking to was not married I probably would have cheated.
I guess there's something missing in my relationship. I don't know if I should talk to my bf about this and try to fix things or just break up with him.
