There are people who can attract you and take your heart away, but that doesn't mean they'd be a good partner in life as well. A partner in life takes different characteristics, and if a person is already in a marriage, then you make the best out of your marriage for all those in the family. This special friend relationship can help when going through difficult parts in life, because these are what friends are for..and they'd always have your heart because they're special in every way. It is how life will be complete... :) Princess

Well, first you have to think about your kids. (If you have kids)If you don't have kids and are married, but your not in true love with your husband I suggest to do the mature thing and end the marriage in a soft calm way. Being married to someone you do not love will just lead to problems and unneeded stress in your life. The process's of ending your marriage can be very troublesome and stressful. I sudgest to talk to a Local marriage counselor if you care about the feelings of your husband. Do NOT hide this from your husband for the longer it stays hidden the more it will hurt him in the end. Just pick a time when he is calm sit him down sit next to him and hold his hand with both of your hands. And simply tell him that it is not easy for you and you know it will not be easy for him either, but that you want to end this relationship and start a new one. Be very calm and understanding with your husband don't be afraid to answer his questions its best not to leave any loose ends and to make it Clear to him that it is over. Yet try to make it as painless as possible. But before you consider devorce and completely breaking the relationship think about your lover and make sure that "the juice is worth the squeeze" meaning that you really do love him and will not regret leaving your husband. Please think this through. If you decide you wish to stay with your husband. I suggest you explain the entire situation to him and tell him the truth. About the affair with your ex lover. And how you do not love him that you wish to stay with your husband and ask him to not get upset. Tell him that you love him enough to be honest with him. If he really loves you. He will not get to upset and give him a few days and he will understand and in the long run it will not affect your relationship in a negative way. But if you hide the fact you were seeing someone else. Then stopped but do not tell him. He will feel betrayed he will lose trust in you and it will affect your relationship in a way in witch a long recovery and possibly counseling will be needed. Please think your situation over very carefully. As your dealing with the emotions and feelings of 2 separate people. Best Of Luck Sincerely Alex I'm just a 16 years old. But please take my advise to heart.
