But I had to be honest and realize that many of them were not interested in me as a person but someone they could possible bed. Honestly many of these men if you were still fat would not give you the time of day. It is good that you have gained self-confidence and feel sexy, but it was there all along. You have gotten down to a size where you feel good about yourself.
If you play with fire, you will get BURNT!!! You made a vow before God and the people you invited to your wedding. The day you said I do you became unavailable to other men. I am for marriage, it is important for you to talk to your husband. The grass may look greener on the other side but believe you me, it has brown patches as well. I guarantee you, your husband has found himself attracted to other women, and they may have paid him some attention that you were not giving. You are a married woman, adultery has destroyed many marriages, and many men are less forgiving than women when it comes to adultery. The attention you are liking is it worth you risking or losing your marriage over?
You really need to sit down and talk to your husband. No one deserves to be cheated on and to be honest if you have already looked upon or imagined yourself with another man, it is just a matter of time before you act upon it. I can tell you that the attention is not worth destroying your marriage.
As a married woman, I have purposed that I am not going outside of my marriage, and when I find myself feeling vulnerable that I stay home as well as I tell my husband that I feel this way because I want my marriage. There are men that look attractive to me, but I remind myself that I am married and I am that a moment of temptation is not worth me destroying my family. When in this place, I remind myself what I liked about my husband that caused me to marry him and I think on those things. I also say that I have eyes only for my husband and he has eyes only for me. In my house divorce is not an option nor is adultery. I pray that you do the right thing.
To be fair, that's virtually all men -- at least when it comes to romance.
OP sounds like one of those guys who went through a "low" period, for whatever reason -- overweight, unemployed, drugs, etc. -- and got into a relationship with a kind woman who sort of rescued and nurtured him. Then, once he recovered from his low period, he repays her by dumping her for another, usually more conventionally attractive, woman since he now regarded himself as being out of the kind woman's league.
Do what you will, but it seems calculating and ungrateful.
