What if I'm in love with my ex but I'm married?

About 10 years ago, I lost touch with my exboyfriend - nothing really bad, just we were young and werent in to settling down. Since then, we have both been married twice, hes currently single and Im still married to #2 but its not a good marriage. I finally caught up to him after all of this time to discover that I still love him and he loves me too. He wants to see me, was willing to drive across 5 states for the privledge. I cant stop thinking about him. What to do?

Answer #1

This is a hard one, but not impossible. Cheating will not resolve anything. You should seperate yourself from your husband, and tell dude if he really loves you he will give you time to end your marriage. The bad part about that is, how do u know things will truly work with the dude you think you want to be with. dont end your marriage for another man, end it because you no longer want to be in that sitaution. If dude truly cares and wants to be with you he will give you ample time to follow thru with ending your marriage first. you never wanna walk into a new beginning with baggage. The problem with most people these days think, well im getting a divorce anyway, so what if i cheat. thats not the answer. think everything thru before you put your future in perspective. You never know whats gonna happen if you make rash decisions. You are normally disappointed and end up with the short end of the stick.

Answer #2

Bravo bscajunmommi30! Well said. If your current marriage is not good and you want out, make that happen not because you want to be with someone, but because you want to be happy. Maybe seeing your ex and having old feelings come up is the push you needed to end a bad relationship. The feelings you have for your ex may not be love. After all, you have not seen each other for a long time. If you find yourself easily falling for someone else, you need to look at what is going on in your current situation. What are you missing? Divorce is not an answer, but neither is an affair. You should never start a relationship before ending another one. Do what you need to do for you first. Then when you begin a new venture with someone else, you can feel good about yourself. You will be starting something with honesty. Starting anything with a lie is never good. If things work out with the ex, great! Even if they don’t, you still have a guilt-free conscience!

I wish you the best and watch out for that stick.

Answer #3

There is this one quote that someone once told me. “Never leave the once you love for the one you like. Because the one you like will leave you for the one they love.” I don’t know if that helps any. But when I read your situation that quote popped in my head. Good Luck.

Answer #4

if u dont feel right about ur marriage, break it off but be sure that ure not doing that just for the ex cux that could be dangerous

Answer #5

Disscuss this question with your present husband. Maybe he will give you some freedom.
