Is it love or do I just enjoy the attention?

Question - (11 April 2010) 3 Answers - (Newest, 13 April 2010)
A female United States age , anonymous writes:

How can u tell if you are really in love with someone or you are just in love with the distraction and therefore that is why you can't seem to get enough attention from this person. Background: I have recently been in touch via chat with my first real love after nearly 30 years. He tells me he loves me all the time and would leave his wife for me if I was available. I am married with three kids, love my husband and my life and really am not looking to disrupt anything. However, I find myself really almost aching to hear from him each day to the point of distraction. How do I know if I really am in love with him or just kind of bored with my somewhat predictable and at times stressful life?

Nina, I thought about that. Of course, this wouldn't feel good at all. And, I don't have any intention of acting on this "obsession". i was just wondering if it was "real" or not. But i think the essence of your response is "what does it matter if it's real or not?"

It's infatuation, the lust stage...it won't last, don't worry. You need to reconnect with your husband and children. You won't overcome this obsession without some guidance, you should talk to your hubby, btw, how would you feel if he had hooked up with an old girlfriend and started experiencing these same feelings, you've got going on?
