[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all, this advice column with a therapist is really relevant to you:

[b]Also, been there. I have a really overwhelming crush on someone, and have done everything you did -- had graphic fantasies, imagined life with him, the whole bit. [/b] The connection escalated --we spent more and more time together, many hours of conversation. We don't text or communicate outside of when we see each other. It's been going on for about 2 years.

We have not had an affair. Both spouses know about the crushes. Everyone is trying to be a grown up about it.

COVID has really helped everyone re-connect with their spouses!

OP, you don't have to decide anything right now. DO NOT HAVE AN AFFAIR with this person. You don't want to do anything that will make you feel shame/guilt, to make you lose respect for yourself. You don't want to have to lie to your family -- it will destroy your soul.

And, you don't want to have an affair with someone in the middle of an infatuation, throw away your marriage, and then find out that your new guy is not actually the one for you. You need time to figure that out. [/quote]

Same. Not sure what to do with these feelings - they just exist. [/quote]

OMG you're very immature. You should never have married and had kids.[/quote]

Immature would be acting on the PP’s feelings. Bringing that energy home is a great step.[/quote]
