Forbidden Feelings
I’m happily married, but I also have very deep feelings for a close friend. I know that my wife deserves every bit of my mind and heart, and if I don’t give it to her, it’s not fair to her. So I do my best to put it out of my mind and give my wife all my attention, but it comes back from time to time and it’s hard for me to keep it in. But I will never tell anyone because a) I genuinely love my wife and would never end our relationship for anyone, and b) her (the close friend’s) friendship as only that means more to me than risking all of it by telling her there are any feelings beyond that.
