Is it normal to find other people attractive while being in a committed relationship? (Page 2)

Question

I always thought that if you love someone then you could never possibly find someone who isn’t your partner attractive. I have came across guys who claimed to find me really attractive and they have girlfriends or theyre married. I personally can’t be attracted to someone else when I’m in love. Maybe guys are different.

A_Bell · Answer

Of course. Temptation is only a problem if you curate it or act upon it.

It's possible to find others pretty or handsome while in a relationship. The issue is that while some find others attractive, there are other thoughts that may creep into the mind..

normal? yes, but shouldn't be

Immoral? Hell yes

The only person you should find attractive while in a relationship, is that person. Isn't that the point of why you're dating them in the first place. If you can't do that, DONT DATE THEM
