Okay, so I've been in a relationship for almost 3 years now (3 in September) and I love my boyfriend very much. We have a good relationship, and have talked about getting married one day. But the past couple days I've been feeling this attraction towards this other boy who works at the job I just left. I heard that he had a crush on me, which was apparent because he came to our job on his day off to say bye to me on my last day.
Long story short, we hung out last night, I mean just walked around and stuff and he knows I have a boyfriend, but I felt almost guilty hanging out with him! A couple times, casually, he told me I was hot, which I denied of course but felt wanted which made me feel good I guess. When my boyfriend called me I lied and told him I was by myself even though I wasn't even cheating on him, just hanging out like friends. With other boys that I'm just friends with, I don't feel anything for them if we hang out, but when I hung out with him, I felt myself almost wanting to hold his hand or touch him.
I know this will probably pass, but I need help! I don't want to ruin my relationship with my boyfriend, and I'm wondering if it's normal to feel this way. I suppose sometimes I feel in my current relationship like the excitement is gone, and it's just a routine now. I'm wondering if that's the problem, or just the fact that I felt wanted has gotten me all excited.
Obviously a relationship wouldn't even work with this boy I'm talking about, but I feel like I am emotionally cheating by feeling this obsession with him. Will it pass??
