5 years of long distance relationship, we did not see each other for 4-5 months and then spend 3-4 months living together. And everything was nice. Then the last time we were separated for long time, It was for 8 months, which was, in my opinion, too long. during the last 3 months of that last period of separation, I got really close to a good friend, and eventually, went out. At the beginning I was just asking myself what I felt.
I felt alone, and my girlfriend could not come as planned. Now, I feel I am in love with this person. But I am not sure of my feelings. The thing is that I do not miss my girlfriend when she is away, and I do miss the other person. And I do not enjoy having sex with my girlfriend, and on the other hand, to do it with the other girl is the most amazing thing I have experienced. I saw her this christmas, after 18 months of just thinking about her. And she stills feel the same way for me.
I am confused.
Actually, I know I am in love with the other girl, I just think for a log time It was just plain whim of heart. But now I think about her all day long. And I don't have the courage to break with my girlfriend, I love her very much, but I am not In love... Does that makes sense?
It must be really difficult to not see someone for those lengthy amounts of time... so I can imagine that must take a toll on your relationship whether either of you want to admit that or not. I think it is also possible to love two people, I mean, they make movies about this all of the time! You really just need to sit down and weigh your pros and cons as to who you see yourself with in the future.
It just seems that you have lost the passion from your current relationship and now that you found it with someone else, you think that someone else can fix this hole. I can almost promise that if you ran to the other girl you would not be getting the same relationship that you have now with your current girlfriend. My advice would be to find a way to put the passion back into your current relationship. That way you can still be in love and not in lust.
I have thought about putting back the passion. But the thing is, I have never felt this kind of passion before. Thank you for your advice. - 10 months ago
