The really significant other

By Anonymous - 30/01/2024 08:00 - United States - Oklahoma City

Today, my childhood best friend and I just rekindled. He has literally known me since the day I was born. We spent all of our time together, baths, playing, all of it. We've always been connected. However, in high school, we ran from each other. Now, we found out we love one another but we’re in marriages. I would give up my SO for him. FML

OP, you said you were both in marriages. Thats a bit more complicated than just a 'SO'. I strongly advise you to figure out first why you are apparently dissatisfied with your marriage. Work on that first before committing to someone else - You owe that to your spouse, your marriage, and yourself. If your marriage cannot be remedied then it's time to end it. Then and only then is it time to look for another partner... OP, I understand that the grass looks greener on the other side of the fence. When I was a boy our neighbors had a couple of horses and they seemed to prefer leaning over the fence to eat the grass just over the fence instead of the grass in their lot. And sometimes it is greener - But you said both you and your friend are married... I could be wrong, but I also may have picked up on the possibility that you might be discovering that you are a different sexual orientation than you had though (its comparatively rare for children of opposite sexes to take baths together). That further complicates the situation. There is nothing wrong with being gay or bisexual. There is a problem however with having an affair outside a marriage and things will get much more difficult if you do that.

Ask him if he feels the same way. If he does, you both get divorced and only then get together. Everything else would build your relationship on a lie.

“Til death do us part………. actually until I rekindle my connection with a childhood friend” Seriously????? does marriage not mean shit to anyone these days??? Seriously. stop seeing him. y’all are both married. it’s only gonna go downhill from there. Then your husband will milk you for everything you got in alimony for being unfaithful. consider if it’s worth going through all of that because of infatuation from someone you haven’t seen in a long time.
