I'm in love with DH's best friend.

[Feronia]

DH and I have been married for six years, together for ten. We have a one year old daughter and a very comfortable life.

Ten months ago DH's best friend from school and uni came to stay with us for a few weeks while the sale of his house went through. (had sold his Scottish house and moving to London.) it was the start of loads of arguments for DH and I because I wasn't happy about having a virtual stranger (to me) in the house when I had a new baby.

It was awkward at first, with breastfeeding, looking a state etc, but with DH at work, it became really lovely to have X around. I found myself making sure I put make up on and tried to dress up. X would come with me to baby clinic, for walks in the park, shopping.

He ended up staying about 9 weeks. When he moved out I felt such a sense of loss, it was like someone had died. I'd cry all the time and just be awful to DH, and I'm sure my family think I had some sort of late postnatal depression.

After three weeks of not seeing him I texted him and suggested a coffee, joking my DD was missing him. He seemed to jump at the chance and we met that day. And many days since. I can't get enough of him and I think he feels the same. When my DH was away for a night last week, X came over in the evening and after some wine he kissed me and I've never been so happy. He wanted to stay but I made him leave. Which I sort of regret.

Im completely in love with him. If I don't see him for a day it's like my heart will break.

I don't know what to do.

Really.

'Should I be unfaithful and betray my DH with his best friend? Ooh, let me think about that for a minute...'

It’s a zombie thread no point giving advice now

Oh bloody hell!

Sodding ZOMBIE!!

Stop seeing him, it’s trashy to do this behind your partner’s back.

you don’t love him, you were bored on your own with a baby and he was company whilst your husband went to work so that you had a house over your head and could feed your baby.

if you are having baby blues that’s ok, go to the doctors not another fella. If you aren’t having the baby blues then you are just being a dick and should knock it off

oh ffs - who brought back a dead thread. Reporting so it gets closed. Op will already be divorced by now

Why would you do this @Bigmac999 FFS!

Reporting as a zombie.

Yep and I bet X fucked off the minute it wasn’t an exciting affair anymore..

Gutted this is a zombie. I wanted to know what happened. I know it’s people’s lives and that yady yady yada, but rich people fucking their lives up in Chelsea?? Dynamite reading.

I did wonder if it was a wind up. Raffles was namedropped just a few too many times.

I know it's a Zombie thread but . . . .

How can somebody be with a partner for 10 years and not meet their best friend (from school and university, both, unusually) to the extent that they are a 'virtual stranger'? It was a London/Scotland distance, not Australia/Iceland.

Doesn't sound like much of a best friend to me . . . . and, if true, he didn't act like one either!

I'm sure everyone is happy now though! Bastard #1 was left after not understanding how she felt about Bastard #2, Bastard #2 was left after leaving his tartan socks on during sex and Bastard #3 is about to be left for STBB4 (SoonToBeBastard4) because he has a nose hair and it gives her the ick .

If anybody wants the endings to other zombie threads sorting out, just give me a shout🕵If I have the time between my online porn addiction, buying cocaine and (much worse) putting carrot in Bolognaise, I'll be happy to oblige.
