Sent to a friend[8419] In love with my married best friend
I've loved this woman since the day I met her 10 years ago. We were both single then, but she wasn't interested in me as I was too young for her. Time passed and we became really close friends... I felt if I couldn't have a love relationship with her, I would be as good of a friend as I could possibly be. We both ended up marrying other people a few years later.Fast forward to the present. She is still married (not really happily), and has a young child, and I'm separated.
Recenty she expressed to me her desire for a non-serious, one time fling... Not to start any relationship, but just to see what it would have been like.
This was our first mistake. We figured it would be a purely physical thing... But the emotional connection was so quick, so strong, it caught us off guard. Neither of us have ever felt emotions this strong or pure before. Please understand that We both know that from the perspective of her family what we've done is wrong. We have attempted to call this off on numerous times, with little success. She means so much to me that I am willing to let her go so that I don't ruin her family (more than I already have), but I am weak against the emotions that fill me when we are together. She has said that if she didn't have a child that things would be much more straightforward. With her child I know the odds of us starting a long term relationship together is barely above zero, but still I dream about that potential. We both know what we should do, but neither of us are willing to lust let this bond be severed.
All I can say is that I am sorry.

- that was very heartbreaking. honestly, i think, both of you made a mistake n it was stupid. everything is already complicated. during the time of complexcity, only two options are available. it is yes or no. what i mean by yes is, u need to take a bold step to actually find a way to be with her, etc. marry her. if u cant do it, it is the no option, that is leave her. move to another city, don't contact her at whatever the reason is. the hint to your choice is in ur 'lovers' child. what is the best for he/she is the best choice. trust me, evry problem has an end. it is just in the matter of time.
- I understand where you're coming from but I question if you actually care for her. She is still married, and she has a child. You are separated, you did not say what happened but I imagine that she got married before you did. If you care about her, you'll genuinely want her marriage to work out. You wouldn't continue enabling her to cheat on her husband and potentially destroy what's left of her child's family life.
You continue to be emotionally connected to someone you thought you were going to marry until the very last second before she said "I do". Then you perhaps got married to someone who you felt reminded you of her and that didn't work out. You need to find some way to emotionally detach yourself from her, otherwise you'll continue hurting her and hurting yourself in the long run.
Be a friend, because right now you sure aint
