keeping feelings at bay...

[rdoomed66]

I met someone amazing 2 months ago. Oddest place at the oddest time. We both realized that we are connected to one another and something was turned on that we cannot turn off and its growing. We spent time together but we both know that we arent ready for this now. She is unhappily married and in the process of starting to leave so this is now very difficult. As things are getting stronger and harder to resist, we both realize that the timing is not right and we cant jump into things. She said that for right now she can only offer her friendship because she doesnt want this to turn into a stringing along of broken promises and disappointment due to current circumstances. She said she has to work on her issue. I agree because i am also not ready, but now I am finding it hard to deny my feelings inside. Its as if I am being pulled into that feeling of us first meeting. The heart seems to want what it wants and I have to bury that each day more and more.. Any idea about how to approach this? We've mentioned the word soulmate but how do you resist that feeling? I knew this would be rough and challenging but is that how it's supposed to be? Or do we just follow the heart now instead of waiting for the time to be right? Want to make sure I am doing the right thing as I approach this battle. Thanks for the advice.

If she's married still, you'll just have to wait. I don't have experience with this particular situation, but logic tells me not to get involved with married women. You have to let your brain out power your heart for now.

That is wise...and yeah I have to let my brain out power my feelings now and look at the bigger goal here.

They say men have enough blood in the body to power the brain or the dick but not both at the same time. My suggestion - use your brain.
