Topics: i am fucked!
I am madly in love with D. but i feel myself developing a crush on someone we both know who is VERY similar to him (personality and looks). I avoid all contact with this person and the sad part is that he does make my heart beat fast but i still love D. the same.
How do you "nip" a crush in the "bud"?

The best way to nip a crush in the bud is to nip them. Nip meaning bone...is that a possibility? Nothing gets me over a crush faster than seeing it through. How well do you know him? Possibly sqashing the fantasy with a taste of reality would help...like having a conversation, finding his flaws. Of course if he's totally wonderful in every aspect...your doomed.

It's okay to have a crush, just don't act on it. We're always in control of our actions, but not our desires.
-
You feel guilty because you're confusing thought with action. You feel you're betraying D by having feelings for someone else. You're not. Enjoy your feelings, indulge them by masturbating or using them in your relations with D. In any case, you're responsible for your actions. No matter how much you want to jump on this other person you don't have to. Believe, I've faced this hundreds of times myself.

Ask yourself what is this new cat bringing into your life that D hasn't already brought?
If you can't find a reasonable answer then your mind is wandering and you are feeding into it too much.
If you find something then ask yourself if you can somehow pull it from D and if you think you can then there should be no need to travel outside from the source.
There is something in human nature that wants the other white meat.
In the tarot "the Fool" travels away from his source and somehow after all that fussing returns to his source.
There you have it, Saint Jeunelle has spoken

there is nothing he can do for me or give me that D. hasn't done or given to me before. D. is a hard act to follow and his exes are still not over him (thank god we are separated by an ocean)he is a good guy yet he is rugged and very good in bed. he is kind and very smart. he is like 5 guys rolled into one and i dunno why i have a crush (1rst since D.) now but i am gonna keep my thoughts to myself, ignore the way his lips curl up when he smiles, the way he looks at me and just let time heal my heart. i'll light a candle.

Our heart and feelings can be control. It's human to like men or woman. I am married but I still like beautiful woman. But my love and respect for my wife helped me in my stormy nights.I am not telling I may not fall.
But I will not think over it or let it go round my mind. I will try to forget it as soon as poss.-
he loves me more than he loves his mother and i love him above everyone else besides the kids. i am trying best not to do anything stupid and i am 90% sure i won't when not around "that" and only 51% sure when he is in the same house as me and when he is standing there, i can't think so. but I am gonna pray, even though i never do and don't even believe in a god. but i will today and take a cold shower and workout to punish myself. and maybe read to forget about "that"

maybe you can move your feelings to a spiritual one. we call it 'courtly love'.I got that from the story of king arthur...you kn know the thing about lancelot and guinevere...that's the example. but it's just a crush . it will go away .
-
Argh! My stupid internet ate my response to this thread TWICE!
To be brief, I can't think of anything that might be of help to you because I've never had a crush on anyone before.
However, if I were in your husband's situation and my wife told me she was developing a crush on another man, I would be glad that she was honest enough to tell me. Then we would work it out together. But I'm not like everyone, so it might not be a good idea.-
[if you were in a car driving with your girlfriend and she happens to look at another man, would you be jealous?]
No, but I'm very NOT a jealous person. I don't think I own or possess the people I have a close relationship with. All I own is my share of the relationship itself, and that's something that cannot be replaced. That's how I look at things, anyway.

I once had a crush on my boyfriends best friend.He was very cute and sweet and we used to flirt a bit. At first I was trying to convince myself that i didnt have a crush and that made things worst cause i kept thinking about him. So finally I decided to admit to myself what I was feeling but decided i wasnt gonna act on it...eventually the feelings disapeared. So for now I think its best to just hang in there and maybe it will go away, maybe you'll realize it was more of a fantasy..GOOD LUCK!!!
-
i am gonna try Stella. thanx for the advice. i have already admitted it to myself and now to you guys. next step is to wait for it to disappear and yes he does flirt with me. he looks at me WEIRD! like i am nude and he looks at me only when no one is looking.
like i kiss and hug everyone at that house but i shake his hand because i don't know him. yesterday, he came home from work and i was there alone and he kissed me on the cheek. but as we were leaving, he just ignored us. then i am stupid to be thinking about someone 5 years younger than me (although he looks older than me and is taller) -
yes, yes I am and no 19 soon to be 20 year old can play my emotions like that. So what if he walks around with no shirt on with his soocer player's bod, so what if he looks at me like im naked and smiles every time he makes me uncomfortable or stops at the top of the stairs to stare. I am gonna get over this and fast.

Sometimes enigma can make us become more obsessive towards a person. i know because i always have crushes on unavailable people. Either thay are married or their orientation is not swinging the other way. What i usually do is that i confront the situation. I listen to my feelings . It's telling me something. Then I get to try to know the person more. I realize that there are qualities I don't really like. After sometime the feeling just disappears.sometimes being in hiding can make it worse sometimes it helps. different folks for different strokes.
-
he is single. but i try telling myself that he is too young for me. i try to guilt myself about his age, although i am just 4 years older than him seeing he is turning 20 soon. but i am gonna get over it one way or another. i hope he doesn't feel the same though because that will make it easier for me.

Lolita, you're acting as if you're not in control of your actions. Passion cannot force you to do anything; if you sleep with this guy, it'll be your choice. And why should D. be jealous if you tell him you're attracted to someone else? It's only normal. Maybe it'll excite rather than enrage him, knowing his wife is such a hot baby. I used to love when my wife told me about her crushes, it turned into a really wonderful form of foreplay. Stop beating yourself up. Enjoy your attractions. You don't have to do anything about them.
-
Lolita whatever you choose to do or react think twice and dont say anything to D to sc*** things betwen the both of you.
got to go now, have to tuck my son to bed.Take care -

LOL!!! I have loads of hobbies and the sex is only every 2 days and i write about it then forget it. I don't have a crush with this guy's body NP it's the way he doesn't say much, he is mysterious, yet kind (i see him with kids) he is also emotional and very mature. its the side of his personality i saw. but maybe i should give more time to my beading that my sexing
and if i leave the sex, D. will be miserable and horny
LOL! NP i think SC was joking
-
Perhaps some negative image substitution? Positive thinking helps, I've been told, so maybe negative thinking will too...
Imagine the guy with buck teeth, hairy ears, an uber-tiny dick and a complete lack of any kind of sexual prowess. He's probably a horribly bad kisser too.
-
I would go to opposite of negative; have some crazy romantic fantasies about him while you please yourself. I've used this multiple times to get rid of crushes. The fantasy is stimulating, and after a little while the real thing doesn't measure up to what the mind has created.
If it doesn't work, at least you got some good self-sex out of it. -
Is it a harmless crush? If so, then I see no problem with it. Perhaps you should even tell the person and your husband and all get a kick out of it. I think it is normal for people to be sexually attracted to other people--it's acting on those urges that is not good.
If it is a serious crush then I would probably stay away from the person--I would not do anything to sabotage my marriage, personally. -
Well, I'm sure you know what would happen if you gave into the crush. You ruin your relationship with D, you get your yayas out, and what? You're left with a broken home, a sex only relationship with a 19 yr old kid (Because a 19 yr old isn't ready for the real deal nor do they want it), and your life in shambles. Sounds great doesn't it?
We all have temptations. You just have to be strong enough to think with your brain and your heart and not your hormones. Butterflies are great, but they'll go away eventually and what will you have to show for it?-
I've done wrong, I've made that mistake, and once you do it there's no going back, there's no relationship counseling, it will hang over your head until your relathionship is over. And all the time afterwards you think of how things were different before, how your partner looked at you differently, cared for you differently. And in those silent moments where you are wondering whats going on in their head, you know there are no words you can say to rebut it, because you gave them the ammunition, and they will shoot, and shoot, and shoot.
-
D. will simply leave. I cannot bear the thought of it. many times I have wanted to leave him because i am truly undeserving of his love but he never let me because he loves me so
and i love him the same but my thoughts and feelings i cannot control and i am gonna worry about my actions, like NP said.

Many a ruined life could have been prevented, if only one had been wise enough to follow positive advice. Too many take chances and linger too long at some pleasure, trying to enjoy as much as possible without falling into the evil that is there. People are so afraid of missing something, and so they step closer and closer to actual transgression, until, like a waiting spider, it reaches out and entangles them.
There are so many temptations, which annoy us in our daily life. We shall never be entirely safe from them. For as long as we are in the world, we will have to protect ourselves from them. All around us there are people or things, which may appeal to our weakness. When we cannot avoid them, meet them with patience rather than with anxiety or thoughtless severity. Correct and remedy what we can. As for things, which cannot be remedied, bear them patiently in His Name.
God's Word is very strong against any kind of sexual relation outside of marriage. He strictly prohibits any flirtation or illicit love affair by either married partner with another person. One of the great blessings of a Christian home is the fact that husband and wife can trust each other when they know that each is faithful to the other in thought, word, and deed. As they serve the Lord together, it becomes a "little bit of heaven," free from the deception, suspicion, jealousy, and unfaithfulness that wreck so many homes. -

Oh goodness. This is how affairs start. It is normal to have crushes though, just because you're married/in a relationship, doesn't mean you'll never be attracted to anyone else. So don't beat yourself up too much over it.
But I agree with Cathy. If you don't want to cheat on D, then avoidance is your best bet.
Edit: And maybe avoidance will make you crush on him more initially, but it'll fade eventually if you don't see him at all. -
-
You can't put all the responsibility on him. In order for him to leave you alone, you must leave him alone.
I can only see this situation escalating if you continue to see him. If it does go any further, it'll be your choice and you'll have to deal with the consequences. Guilt is a useless emotion. -
-
-
LolitaV - If you love 'D.' like it seems you do (both on here and according to your blog *cough cough*) I don't think you're in any danger of doing anything stupid with this other guy.
-
Or just have sex with him once and get it over and done with. Then you'll see that the reality is never as good as the fantasy. And then don't tell hubby. Ever. Your guilt will be your punishment and your burden. It'll be your secret to carry with you.

Lols - I've waited to answer this.
But I have to tell you this: I think you should totally distance yourself away from this crush.
My reason for this: New found romance is almost ALWAYS a stronger pull than your real love. It's easy to get yourself in a bad situation - where you think - "it'll be ok..."
Or it just feels too good to say no.
I've been on both sides.
New infatuation is sometimes too good to let go of.
Because the MAYBE will always be there.
The very fact that you've allowed yourself to go into fantasy mode - where you get the butterflies and weak at the knees tells me that you need to maybe look inside deep - and ask yourself what this person is giving you that D isn't - that YOU need.
You may not even know what it is...
But something this young man is doing - the way you react to it - is something that you are NEEDING - Craving - and you're not getting it.
I don't mean to presume to tell you that you can't handle it - or that it won't happen - that you can't ever tell - and you've already said that you DON'T want it to happen.
But trust me - I've been there... You DO want it to happen.
I don't know why - each person is different - but it's a hard call.
And putting yourself in that position Lols - man - that's gonna end up tearing YOU apart if something happens.
I mean - seriously - imagine the worst happens.
Cause it often does.
Imagine you GET with this guys... It's totally Hot - and now - you're in LOVE with him...
And he's in love with you - you with him... But now you'll have to make a decision about D.
And then D finds out - and everyone gets hurt.
And I mean hurt.
Drama - fights - leaving - sadness...
And then the new guy meets a new girl - and you're by yourself.
I say - and this is just me save yourself the problems - save yourself the pain.
The fantasies feed the "want". So if you come across a fantasy - don't feed the flame - because the bigger the flame - the bigger the want.
Hugs babe - it's a seriously difficult decision to make.
On the other hand kiddo - if you do end up with this guy - he COULD be the most amazing guy in your life.
He Could be the soulmate of your heart.
You just never know.
I suppose - after all is said and done you'll just have to look at the situation and decide what you really want. And what you really need.
And heck - you could always ask D - he might be open to a 3-some... Or watching... Or just letting you try it out - if that is your fantasy..
Hugs - no matter what you decide - I'll still love ya!-
Oh WW you are making me cry. I cannot afford to break up my marriage because kids are involved and i LOVE my husband. but it SUCKS!!! i try not to think of him
but i can't help looking forward to the parties we are all going to. i think if i just pretend long enough and not look or talk to him (he is very quiet anyway) then i will slowly get over it. what hurts the most is the maybes and what ifs and the want to find out if the gleamer i see is indeed a rainbow waiting at the end. I feel so guilty i barely can look at D. but knowing myself and my strength, i know i'll get over N. -
I totally understand.
Just so you know - I left my EX because he did this... And I sorta did too. (Not completely - but yanno - enough inside to know that I was in the wrong thinking about it...)
It took me 3 years to leave my ex - and this wasn't the ONLY reason I left him.
But it was a facet of it.
I think if you are TRULY in love with someone - who gives you EVERYTHING you need - then EVERYONE and EVERYTHING else becomes invisible.
You don't think about others the same way - you don't even note that they are "sexy and you want them" - you don't get butterflies.
My hubby now - it's like that for us.
NO ONE ELSE EXISTS IN THAT PLANE...
I don't know how to tell you to stay away - because if it's that strong of a pull - there might be something there - and you might need it.
I don't want to tell you to do it.
But I will tell you - if you plan on being with D for the rest of your life - and you're sure that he is the one for you - then you need to stop yourself now... and make it stop.
But - if you think there is something there - then maybe you need it.
You're going to have to balance it out.
Life isn't always black and white.
There are a lot of gray things involved.
I can say with my hubby - no one else exists - there are no temptations there are no butterflies - there are no thoughts or fantasies - it just isn't there. And I've been in situations where previously I would have been weak at the knees and they don't even come close to phasing me now. NO ONE ELSE EXISTS.
And this is the first time in my life I've ever felt that way.
So - I believe that is HOW you should feel - if you're really in love.
And that love is giving you EVERYTHING you need.
Maybe you just need to find out what D isn't giving you that you need - and maybe see if you can add it to spice up your life.
Maybe it's that "FLIRT" mode that you need.
Maybe it's that "Mystery" mode that you need.
You are a woman of GREAT imagination - you CAN role play it into happening - and make it exciting again. Trust me - YOU CAN DO IT.
But if you really, truly don't want it to happen kiddo - then you're gonna have to make it NOT happen - and that means avoidance at all costs.
There are NO what ifs - if you aren't going to do it - if ya know what I mean.
Again - let me tell you LOLS - no matter what you decide to do - we'll all still love you.

I don't think I've seen someone have this much trouble with this. It seems like you are setting yourself up to fail.
-
I got the answer.
Have Wager witch turn him into bird or toad OR
Have vodooKobra murder him OR
Have MarketBorn sell him to Korean Cannibals.
No mr 19 no trouble. We shall sin and for good and then confess at the box of the Naughty Nun. -
You can deal with the situation you are into now by either directly suppressing unacceptable urges, saying no to them or by hiding them deep inside. Hiding unacceptable urges means repressing full awareness of them by keeping them in the unconscious.

You have to discern as to whether it is a crush or whether it's love. It sounds to me, Lolita, that you've got a momentary fit of physical attraction: it will pass, such things tend to do. If you are having thoughts which extend beyond just going to bed with him, then you genuinely have a problem: the good news, however, is that he may not feel the same.

act on ur impulse and lose D
and live with the consequences
but if u really love D there is no room for another not even a thought-
Sufi if my love for D. could be ripped out of my heart and placed online, it would make the internet crash. I have left everything for him and he has proven himself worthy of my love time and time again, to the point where i feel like i am not deserving of such a man and I wouldn't be wrong. If my love could control my thoughts and feelings, this thread would never exist because then i wouldn't have this problem. in the 7 years I have been with D. i have NEVER, ever looked at another man or woman the way i have him.
