I have the same question - esp since I am not supposed to love this person (it would be majorly frowned upon and everyone would automatically say it's infatuation - but is it? I feel like I do love them. I am more concerned with their well being than hooking up with them - because we 'shouldn't' be doing that).


Their well being? Are they your patient or student or employee


No, just a lot younger than me. Not married.


But you are married and obsessed with your coworker.


No, he's definitely not my coworker. We work in very different industries! He is a very good friend and we have kissed etc.
Why do posters make up scenarios ha ha.


But you are married.


+1 I remember your prior thread. You are married.



NP. What's the prior thread?


I am not good at finding old thread, but She has several threads, she is obsessed with the guy. Her DH may be an alcoholic, but she has some mental illness too.

Get a therapist


Don't even discuss it.


Discuss it with your therapist preferably during a discussion about why you are addicted to drama, dysfunctional relationships and men who aren't available to you for one reason or another


Don't have or need a therapist. I'm actually happy, feel good, lots of friends. What drama?
All is well - but you don't want to hear that haha Sorry.


You need a therapist because you are obsessed with this guy.

p.s. yes I get that you were referring to the addiction issues - but that's out of my control. I don't consider it "drama".


I'm glad you have friends.
The drama of your affair.
The drama of you still being involved in your exes issues.
There's a reason you found yourself in both situations

That's why I became a bad boy. We never get dumped. Women consider us a project.
