Hello I was wondering if anyone could give me a bit of advice or reassurance? I'm happily married to my husband of 14 years and we have lovely two young children. My husband is good looking, hard working, loving, dependable. Not perfect in all ways, can be moody but a pretty good catch I'd say. Recently I've been feeling increasingly nostalgic/retrospective and have found myself thinking/dreaming about other men. A colleague from work has appeared in my dreams a few times now as well as an ex boyfriend who I haven't seen for a long time. Last week I happened to be working with a man I haven't seen for around ten years but with whom I had what you would probably call an 'emotional affair'. Nothing ever happened or was said but I was completely in love with him and I'm pretty sure the feeling was mutual. It took me a very long time to get over this man. Seeing him last week brought back a lot of those old very intense feelings and since then I have felt terribly depressed and found myself obsessively thinking about him. He's married, so am I. I know it would have been an almighty mess and I don't even want anything to ever happen between us but can't seem to make these feelings go away and it makes me wonder what is wrong with me? I married young (at 21) and did all my growing up with my husband. I've never been unfaithful. I'm a good Mum.
