I'm not really sure where this post should go...but guess it will get moved if it's in the wrong spot!
Ok...I have been in a relationship with DH (not legally but might as well be) for going on 3 years....and I love him. We get along great...the sex it great. But...I have been struggling with depression/anxiety for a while now...and I don't talk to him about it...see post under depression. Anyways, I have had thoughts about other men...and I don't know why.....sometimes I feel like I don't get the "attention" I get from a few of the co-workers that I work with. Is something wrong with me....am I being needy....I would never cheat...but would I....I just don't know what is going on....
Any advice? Love my bf/DH....but.... Love my bf/DH....but.... Love my bf/DH....but....

Maybe what you are feeling is that you are not getting what you really need from your boyfriend. Is there a lack of communication? Is there a lack of intimacy (not sexual)? Is there a lack of fun and enjoyment (other than sex)? Is the honeymoon stage over in the relationship and you are finding it's not what you originally thought it was? Is your depression clouding your thoughts and ideas?

Some tough questions to consider in order to figure out why you are feeling the way you are. I hope you can work through this and get some comprehensive understanding of what YOU need and want in a relationship. I hope you can communicate this with your boyfriend in a positive way (no arguing or accusing).

I wish you well Love my bf/DH....but....

Hugsss

I agree with Sabau. We all like attention, whether we admit it or not. Appreciating and receiving attention is natural!

Take gentle care,
