I've been dating my girlfriend for 2 years now after coming back together from a 6 year gap between a bad break up with her. During the will-we won't-we come back together period I met another girl whom I was trying to date, in the end I chose my ex over her but now I sometimes have conversations with this other girl to try and go out on a date even though she knows I have a gf and I know she has a bf. To be clear I don't intend to cheat on my gf nor break up with her for another person, I just sometimes have the mindworm of 'what could've been'.

TL;DR I want to have a non serious date with another girl just to let something out of my chest

    You let: loneliness, "what if", and an obsession of the "good times", chase after an ex you should have left well alone. Now that you found a new girl right at the time your ex decides to relent and come back, you're in a dilemma.

    Honestly, what's going on a date going to accomplish? What if she's a cool person you can see yourself happier with? Are you going to dump a woman you've been chasing for SIX years? Are you going to have her dump her boyfriend? Are you hoping the date will go badly to make you feel good about returning to your ex? What's the goal?

    You know you're playing with fire. It sounds like it cost blood, sweat and tears to put your relationship back together.

    Be above reproach. Any reproach you do get is liable to send your relationship up in smoke. She only needs to find out, not like it, and decide not to believe whatever excuse you give.

    "Cheating" is both mental and physical. You ARE cheating.

    Be frank with the new girl that you need to keep each other at arm's length for propriety's sake. Then spend as much time with her as you like because why the fuck not? You don't have to avoid women you're attracted to just because you're in a relationship. You just have to not save sex with them. That's REALLY easy. 1) Don't be alone with her. 2) Don't get drunk together.
