I don't want to cheat, but I know I need the attention my husband isn't giving me!

A female , anonymous writes:

My husband and I have been together for 9 years, married for 5 years. We have 2 beautiful sons. A 3 year old and a 9 week old. Before I became pregnant with my youngest son, one of his close friends used to make passes at me and flirt a little. We texted back and forth from our cells but that was it. I didn't know how to react and soon after this I found out I was prego and it ended as quickly as it began. Now, no longer prego and in no way thinking it would ever start again,I was shocked to find myself talking to him again. He brought his son to my oldest's birthday party about a month ago. Since that time we have texted a lot. I love my husband very much, however, we do have some issues. I wonder if this is the reason I have become attracted to his friend. Honestly, this is not the first time I have had a relationship with someone else. The relationships have never been physical. It's almost as if I "need" the attention. My husband has MANY hobbies and rarely attempts to spend anytime alone with me. Could it be the lack of attention causing me to become attracted to other men? I don't want to cheat on him, but I feel like in doin so maybe I will satify whatever it is I'm looking for. Please help. I don't know what to do

Danielle934 agony auntYou really need to talk to your husband and let him know you are feeling neglected. Ask him if it is possible for him to take a little time out of his day to remind you how much he cares for you. If you keep this texting going then it could lead to something else. That something else might sound good right now, but you need to think about your children, and how your decisions DO effect them for the long run. Maybe the best thing for you to do is to get yourself some hobbies as well, so you will be bussy and wont feel so neglected.
