brief back story : this ex was the one that got away, we had been friends for years ended up having a fling just before i got with DH ....i liked him a lot but i was a single mum of one and he couldn't commit and it bothered him that i had a child i think. (we were quite young) ....but i always hold a bit of a torch for him because he was the first bloke that i dated after being in a very long and bad relationship and i think he made me realise my potential in a way. as our fling was fizzling out i met dh and my feelings for dh way eclipsed this guy and we got serious quickly and went on to get married and have more dc
dh dislikes him as when i got with dh i was still friends with ex, but he still kept trying it on with me and basically trying to cause trouble between us. and in the end i realised i had to cut contact with ex to make it work with dh
ex moved away a few years ago but is still good friends with my brother and they see eachother quite a bit
well dh was out the other night and ex messaged me and we spent hours chatting. not about anything dodgy it was literally like old mates just catching up
but i feel hideously guilty because if DH knew he would be gutted
i feel like i have cheated
