Recently i have started a new job.. and theres this guy i think is kinda cute.. but i didnt think he was cute at first.. but he is really friendly, and so sweet to me.. I can't help it but sometime i picture us together, i mean.. i think about him alot.. sit together, and he talks to me, opens the door for me like a gentleman, he leans over me when sitting next to me.. today he was asking me about how to pronounce my name.. kinda flirting i think.. anyways i am clueless about all this.. i really don't want to ruin my relationship.. is this wrong?? I don't know.. but right now i see to feel uninterested with my boyfriend at the moment.. I can't help thinking about him, he is so sweet.. always smiling at me.. always helpful, etc.. today i had a little conversation with him but got interupted.. he finds it hard to look in my eyes.. and is a little shy.. but i always catch him looking at me.. tell me im an idiot!! what shall i do..?? im lost!! help!!

you say to tell you if you're an idiot so I will, you're an idiot lol. When we get comfortable in a relationship, we learn all we can about our partners and sometimes this can seem a little uninteresting especially if we come across someone new who sparks our interest. You say you have been with your boyfriend for three years now so im guessing you know a lot about each other. Now that this guy has come along in your new job, im guessing that he seems a little fun, kinda cute and a little exciting all at the same time and that can be a dangerous mix especially when you've been in a relationship for a long time. Perhaps its that you and your boyfriend have become a little too comfortable with each other and have settled into a routine and seeing this guy has made this stick out a little more to you. Rather than chase something that would ruin your relationship with your boyfriend, how about spicing things up a little with your boyfriend. Do something unexpected like dress up for him one night or go somewhere you havent been before or go out when you would normally stay in, that kind of thing. Trust me when I say its better to stay with what you have and know to be true, than throw it away on a chance that may lead to heartbreak.

Yes, you are absolutely right my friend, sometimes its just an attraction and we should not ruin our exsisitng life for that.

You don't know this new guy better, so better carry on your relationship with the earlier friend.

It is okay to find other men and make them your platonic friends. But what is wrong is when you are already in a relationship and you still wanted to be commited with someone else. Loyalty and being fair is very important. respect and love, too. If you think you can no longer handle your relationship with your current boyfriend and you want to start a new one with your new found friend, better tell it to him right away. So as not to prolong the situation and causes you much trouble.
