My boyfriend is very toxic, we are on good terms some days then suddenly he is very weird and behaves in a shitty way with me but I just can’t break up with him cause we’ve been dating for 3 years and we are attached we have a deep connection. However, recently at work, i’ve noticed my coworker is taking a liking into me, he knows i am in a relationship and we both know we can never be a thing regardless. However, he just innocently likes me, he takes care of me he makes sure i am comfortable, he jokes around with me, he teases me etc. All of these little things are getting to me they are making me think about him at times. I stop myself from thinking about him and i try to ground myself in reality. Also its affecting my sex life, i am sexually onlyyyyyy able to function if i am attracted to one guy now that its two i am confused and I can’t enjoy sex no more with my boyfriend and i feel bad about it but my emotions are deeply connected to my sex life I can’t separate the two. Now I don’t want to sleep with my coworker but i just think about him (not sexually) but i slightly like him so I can’t feel that sexual attraction to my boyfriend no more. Its toooo complicated and I don't know what to do. I need to stop thinking about my coworker but he makes it very difficult. Everytime he takes care of me i fold tbh😭
Am I cheating on my boyfriend?

Oh, love, it sounds like you've stumbled into a classic emotional conundrum, haven't you? First things first, let’s address the elephant in the room. Cheating isn't just a physical thing; it’s about where your heart and mind hang out. From your story, it seems like you're tiptoeing on the boundary of emotional territory with your coworker. Now, don't beat yourself up. These things happen, especially when your current relationship isn't feeding your soul the way it craves.
Being in a toxic relationship can be incredibly draining, and it's natural to seek comfort and understanding elsewhere. That's what you may be getting from your coworker, a breath of fresh air. However, using this new attention as a band-aid won't heal the deeper issues at play.
You mentioned a deep connection with your boyfriend, yet the relationship oscillates between hot and cold. It's essential to ask yourself whether this connection is nurturing or if it's grounded in a cycle of toxicity that's hard to break free from.
Before thinking about anyone new, it might be time to focus on you. Reflect on what you truly desire and deserve in a relationship. Healthy relationships should elevate you, not leave you feeling confused and unable to enjoy intimacy.
As for your coworker, it's crucial to set boundaries, especially if you decide to work things out with your boyfriend. It’s about being fair to all parties involved, including yourself.
Remember, it's okay to walk away from something that no longer serves you, no matter how long you've been together. Life's too short to be in a relationship that doesn't light your fire, love. Prioritize your happiness and well-being, because you utterly deserve it. 🌟
