exited?

please explain the situation more clearly.

Well you shouldn't be "talking" to another man if you have a DP/DH should you?

EdwardCullenCanHaveMySoul · 27/09/2008 20:19

Presuming if it's foolish then you're married / have a partner?

Horrible thing to do to if you are married/or whatever

Tortington · 27/09/2008 20:19

if you have a partner, even if you are unhappy - you are being an amazingly huge twat

if you dont have a partner go for it

You are being foolish if you think the grass is greener.

But without knowing the back ground it is not possible to give advice.

things not been right with dh for a while him always at work maybe just lonely. "freind" makes me feel alive

Believe me, I've been there and done that for exactly the same reason as you.
It was not a good idea, the grass was not greener. I felt alive for a while then all I felt was a huge amount of guilt.
Having said that, if you're anything like I was, you will have to find this out for yourself.
But, for the record, I'm advising NO!
Take care and think carefully.

If things aren't right with Dh then you either have to sort things out or go your separate ways.

I don't think it is a good idea to start something with another man. You are flattered by the attention he is giving you.

Think carefully before you act. Good Luck

Don't do it shortshorts, it's nice to be flattered and I understand how you feel but taking it any further is a painfull thing to do and won't really solve anything in the end. Talk to your DH about feeling lonely and needing attention...good luck.

QuintessentialShadows · 27/09/2008 21:01

You are creating more problems than you are solving by doing this.

ActingNormal · 27/09/2008 22:36

You will get hurt. It won't be worth it. Even if things aren't perfect with your DH now, things will feel much worse than now in the aftermath of what you are thinking of doing. You might think you can stop at a certain point beyond which you feel would be dangerous to the stability of your life, but you won't be able to stop. So don't start.
