hello , I have something to share with you guys,It's been 3 weeks already after our high school reunion.After so many years , I saw the guy the made me happy when I was in High School. He's not that cute but he's cool & has a sense of humor. We have both feelings with each other but no commitments at that time and until this reunion came. At first, we both hesitant to open a topic and then he sit beside me. He has no girlfriend yet but he knew already that I have a husband now. And then he was telling me that he still love me. I was surprise and of course happy but I can't give the love that I felt before. After that reunion we still have communication for almost two weeks. and then one day I realize that it's not fair for my partner if I continue. Then I'll talk to him that we need to stop. At first, its hard but he still accept our situation now until then he said he's gonna be okay. After that incident, he's not making any calls or text with me.

I think it's natural and healthy to get attracted to somebody else even in a relationship, it's just a matter of disciplining yourself to not entertain the temptation of the situation.

it is being attracted to someone else while married is really healthy for you all you need to remember is that it is you that made the commitment to your spouse and it lies on you to remain faithful and not to over do it. It was so responsible of you to stop when you realise that you are entering the NO ZONE because if you had continue talking with him then you would have started to reminisce on the good times and before you know it something happens. Gods Blessings in your marriage

We can never be certain where our hearts will find affection. We can be completely happy and satisified with our partner. then our eyes meet with someone else and we begin to second guess our feelings. Feeling attracted to someone else may be a sign that your current relationship needs some attention.

Emotions can not be controlled at times, when its there then its there, especially in love. This is the reason why I can not blame people for having feelings for others even if you are already with someone. I think that it is pretty normal to fell the flame once again when you have the person you had feelings before beside you. I think that it is fine to talk about the past and the things that could have been but I guess that it should stop there. Feeling something for him or her is one thing, entertaining the thought is another. I think that we should do what is right. We should stand by our commitments. I admire you past lover for respecting your current situation. Some people just do not care of the choices you make and just keeps pushing on their wishes.
