There are times that you will feel this and it can happen but not most of the times.It is not good to feel this way to somebody while you are in a relationship.Some people put boundaries and limitation on what they feel because they have a relationship and would not like to hurt their partners.It was never easy to be in this kind of situation.But have you felt this way and what did you do?Do you weigh your love for both persons and decide of who to let go?

Well thanks a ton for your response. Yes this do happens with most of the people. They get attracted to someone else while still being in a relationship, may be they are not happy with the present relationship or they want to try their hand outside the present relationship. But i feel that if a person is not happy with a relationship, then he should tell this to his partner and move on otherwise it would mean cheating on the present partner. What say?

This can happen and it depends on each individual how they can manage such situation. It's not impossible to fall in love with other guy/girl while in a relationship- and on this situation, this is the best time to test how faithful you are in your partner.

Sounds very familiar, LOL. I can say i can relate to that situation. It is best to analyze things over and over again. You cannot decide by heart alone because he hears no reason. You cannot just use your brain because he don't have a heart. In short, you have to weigh both what your mind says and your heart yearn.

after reading the discussion and the responses i have to know one thing that it is common. But i tell you that whenever i was in a relationship, I never used to see a guy other way round. They did not matter. I find those who are handsome, handsome, but I did not get attracted to that person anyhow because at the back of my head i knew that I am with someone. now that i am with hubby, i just see him and I have no interest in any other person at all. Yeah maybe because i know I can't hurt him. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

Yes I've been through it and I think that I have no regrets since the person that I had is truly valuable for me, I have learned too many things in life which is priceless and I have felt the real happiness that I never had with my current partner. I am so glad that we have found each other but we already decided to let go because we are both attached. This is the best and right idea to so no one will get hurt in the end.

I have fallen in love with a friend while I was in a relationship with my ex boyfriend way back in 2009. We're both in a relationship that time so we both tried to keep the friendship although we knew for ourselves that we're both in love. It is hard because as much as you want to hide it, people will notice you. Though we don't speak about it, they actually knew about it. They would even give us unsolicited advice on how we should go about it but we both chose to keep our relationships. Actually, I got the signal from him that he can't leave his present relationship as he said that he has already promised to this girl that he'll marry her. There was a time that I tried to distant from his because I am hurting but since we are in the same group and office and so have no choice but to see and talk to each other everyday. We've tried to minimize our communication for months but later on, was able to return our friendship. I know for sure that the feeling is there so I always make sure we won't talk about it. But before he left to continue his studies in Europe, he really displayed a big change. He often go to my table and would invite me to eat out. He normally wouldn't do that as we're afraid that people will talk about us and might think that we're actually in a relationship. I just felt that he is no longer afraid of what others would say that time. He told me he is now ready to take the risk, but sad to say, I am not. That is how we were when he left that year. He came back August this year but I just made an alibi not to see him.

yes i have ever feel this way, and it really feels so weird. because you actually loves your partner so much then this guy/girl comes and stayed in your heart too. Having a crush for someone else confusing! But after all, you must have a commitment between being loved an loving someone. It make you learn that the love that you had right now is really worth to be thrown and get into another person.
