Question - (26 October 2010) 6 Answers - (Newest, 26 October 2010)
A female Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I love my boyfriend. He is amazing. Sure, we argue sometimes. But he is AMAZING. He loves me so much, and thinks I look beautiful no matter what. He will do anything to make me happy, and just would do anything to make sure we never break up. Well ... there is this other guy. He is great. We used to just be best friends, but lately I've started liking him. He also likes me alot too. Lately I've just been thinking ... what if I was with him? And it makes me want to try. But at the same, I'm still in love with my boyfriend. I know I am. I'm scared that if I do go for the guy I like, that he won't love me like my boyfriend. So then I'm just ruining a perfectly great loving relationship for nothing. I don't wanna hurt either of them. I especially don't wanna hurt my boyfriend.=(

You love your bf. You have your feelings for him and your relationship is going well. Therefore, logic says stay with your bf as you have no reason to leave. This other guy may not be bad but in this equation well he's just irrelevant. Keep him as a friend and make sure you and your BF draw up boundaries as often times with young ppl these get crossed and later come the excuses.

You do not love your BF. If you truly loved him like you say that you do. The idea of you and another guy is normal. But to actually think about trying and putting your current relationship at risk is proof that you don't. A person who loves someone would not let another jeopardize that relationship.

Exactly what the poster below has said. I know this is harsh, but cut contact from this person you like. Dont let this crush ruin your relationship because it sounds like what you have with your bf is what every girl wishs for.

If I were you, I would call my boyfriend immediately and tell him that he is more deservant of a girl who actually loves and respects him, and musn't waste anymore of his time on an easy catch.

Don't do it.

Something tells me things aren't all that good with your bf...so sort them out.

The only reason why you have started liking this other guy is becoz your relationship isn't doing all that well.

I did the same mistake...of going on a break and making out with my best friend - RECIPE for disaster!! I swear...i was guilty coz i felt i had cheated on my bf...and i realised i don't love the other guy.

WORK thru your problems...please don't make the mistake of ruining your relationship!! :(
