Hi mylotters, What if you are attracted to someone who is not free to become involved in another relationship? In such a case, it would be better not to let the attraction turn into passion.Love is not something which is imposed on you by fate. There is always a moment when you can choose.

Happiness is possible with a man/woman who is not free. That could be achieved when you're genuinely happy that the person is already attached. The sad thing is that it was not with you. When that fact is accepted only then can you be happy about that committed person. You gave sound advice when you said that that kind of attraction shouldnt be left to grow but left to be forgotten. It's still only attraction after all and there are still lots of possibilities out in the world, just not with that specific person. Out of all the possibilities, you're sure to be bound to find one who is truly meant for you.^_^

I agree with you. I you feel something with a man or a woman who is already committed then turn your head and forget about the person there are so many out there that would love them and feel the happiness for a long time.

If a person has been 'trapped' in a rotten relationship which she finds no happiness, she will only be driven to the arms of someone whom she can find happiness in. Why live in miseries when life is too short. Run as soon as possible when you can find heaven with someone else.

There is always room for happiness. Let us always feel the freedom that we had into ourselves but what you are talking about the happiness of being inlove to someone who is also taken it was just a feeling that we can feel. And the feelings cannot stop to feel. For me it is fine but to have a relationship the one who is already involved was hard which result to hurting each other at the end. But not all. Most of the reasons we dont know why that was happening. So for me when it comes to feelings let it be..Time will come it will be okay. Thanks and have a nice day!

Happiness that will end so fast. All wrong things you do will not put you into a long lasting happiness. Just leave that man/woman who is already committed because expect the fact that you cannot have your happiness long because you hurt someone, destroy a relationship, and the heart of the man/woman who is already committed is not all yours and it would only make you depress and feel pain. Just let go and things will go right.

I suppose you meant the other person is already married, so in that case, if you are in love with the person, you should let your mind rule not the heart. You should be unselfish and think about your own happiness, or both your happiness. It is sad, but you should also think that what if you are the one being cheated on, what would you feel?You should also try to see that you can be happy in someone else, and time will permit that you will forget the married person and you can look for someone single and free.

They can be happy when they have the time to meet each other but not totally, that happiness will end on the right time. These people who are involved on secret relationship like that have limitations. They need to end it because they can hurt the one they truly love. Happiness is possible but you are entering a bigger problem if you let it stays for long. Your happiness is not real because you know deep inside you are fooling someone and you are fooling yourself too. It is all lie.

for me, there is only one road it would lead to: devastation. so as early as possible nip it in the bud. you may leave a very small room for that person inside your heart but that should be it. it should not be something that you would dwell into very often and most of all it should not grow. that small room is just for the hope that someday that person would be free to love you back 100%. but you are certain that this day would never come, remove that small room altogther and make that room for yourself.

if you are attracted to someone who is not free to have a new relationship stop and think for awhile and put your yourself into their shoes and ask yourself what should you do.im sure you dont like the idea of hurting someone just because you wanted to love somebody.so stop it at once before if becomes uncotrollable love.

Unfortunately things like that happens. Either you get hurt or you end up hurting someone else in the prosess. That is the worst. But we are human and cannot ignore feelings. If we could, life would have been a bit easier for some. TATA.

I believe that LOVE has a right place and time. In a situation like this, I think that they should let each other go to avoid hurting the people they care about from getting hurt. If they just follow what they feel about for themselves they would surely hurt a lot of people and ruin a family or both...
