Hi all,

In October I broke up with my boyfriend after 8 years, and I still wonder if it was the right thing to do. Our relationship didn't go that bad, we own a house together and understand each other pretty well however since a long time ago I felt my life was boring. I have always loved being out and he is more of a house person. Apart from that, we wouldn't have much physical contact and being honest he wouldn't attract me physically as much as I would like..

A couple of months ago I went on holidays with some friends, and I always felt attracted by one of them who I have lots in common. As you might already imagine, something happened between us and I felt so guilty that I felt I had to break up with my partner once I came back, although I didn't tell him this was the reason for that.

I am still seeing this person and things are going well but I keep feeling guilty for being with him. My ex boyfriend is now my friend although he is begging me to come back, and every time I see him I cry and I feel like I have made a big mistake.

I feel like I could end up hurting both and I am so confused I am just sad constantly. I hope time helps, but it has now been 3 months..

Any advice is welcome and many thanks for reading my story [emoji4].

Thanks
Maria
