    I am 36 yrs. old. During my college days I had a BF whom I loved hopeless. We had sexual relationship to some degree but we didn’t have sex. He was my first and was passionate, loving and very gentle with me. We could not make it to the altar because some of his family issues. I eventually got married to someone with whom it took me long time to appreciate and fall in love too. We had long struggle and finally last yr.things got better for us. I was satisfied and happy. Suddenly here comes the old BF via internet. He is married with 2 kids and I hope has a wonderful wife too. He wants to be friend with me. I understand this because we both truly loved each other and we live half the world away. I have started thinking about him regularly and time we shared including our sexual intimacy. I can’t be in love with two people at one time. I feel bad for my husband. For my old BF it seems he has gotten rid of that intimate part of our lives and genuinely wants friendship. But here he is in my bedroom because my husband and I are sexually active. How can I get rid of those feelings for my old BF? I want to be friend to him but I fantasize him sexually too. I am in big emotional stress. Should I be friend to him at all?

    Just because your ex-boyfriend is over you, married with children and wants to be friends does not mean it’s right for you to do so, too. In fact, my advice is to forget the friendship with this guy because it’s upsetting you and interfering in you marriage. You need to prioritize, and make your husband the most important man in your life. Just cut it off with your ex-boyfriend. You don’t owe him an explanation. Just be too busy to respond to his calls and internet communication. He’ll get the message.

    The more contact you have with him, the more you’ll fantasize, so let go of your fantasies that are interfering with your marriage and focus on what you do have and what is real. Don’t have any more contact with your ex. It’s not worth your emotional pain.
