well now I've done it

well I know this will seem like I'm the most horrible person in the world but now I think I've really dug myself a grave....

after all the effort I've put forth over the last two years with nothing given back in return my heart had given up and I was ready to move on with my life alone....I just didn't know how to do that....

Then I had a blast from the past re enter my life and we started being friends (yes just friends...nothing that would be considered cheating) and I can't deny that feelings that we once shared did pop up again.....

I thought maybe I was being sent down this path because it was God's way of telling me that I am worthy of being happy and being treated the way I always wanted.....

But now I'm so confused....

My hsbd is being everything I always wanted and although he has traveled this path before it's usually a 2 week fix and then back to his normal anticts.....

but its different this time and I found that my heart has begun to retrust him and that those feelings of love are slowly returning.....

but now I'm troubled because do I continue on a path I'm unsure of because of past experience or do I choose the path I'm not familiar with yet but have no expectations on the outcome.....

I'm not looking to jump into a relationship with my friend but it is an option down the road.....but now my heart is torn I don't want to hurt anyone in this situation but I know I will I just know that if I choose to stay with my hsbd out of fear of this fix being temporary I will be what ifing myself forever.....but if I choose to leave at this point the what ifs will  be there as well......I think my heart already decided that I should make the effort with my hsbd.....but God this is hard!!!

It's not for me to say what you should do, but my ex was in something of the same position you are, decided to engage in the extracurricular activity, and caused a lot of pain and suffering in the process.

I think it's better to leave someone 'cause you're better of alone, than plunge into another relationship before you've even settled the first one. At least that's what I'd suggest.

You pick the one you made vows too. I don't feel like picking my husband right now (although there isn't the option of someone else) but that's part of the marriage bit. If there's a chance, you have to take it.

You need to do everything you can to work out your marriage.  You do not want to look back and regret throwing in the towel too early.  Give your marriage everything you can right now and see how it is this time.  There was a reason you and "your friend" parted ways years ago. If he was the one then you would have stayed with him.  Keep us posted. We are here for you.

Make every effort before you move on. Life has a way of testing you when you least expect it. Good Luck!
