Is it normal to crush on someone even though i have a boyfriend?

My boyfriend and I have been dating for a year and a half, and I'm pretty sure I want to be single. I can't get myself to go through with a breakup because I definitely love him, but it doesn't feel right because I have a crush on someone else. Does this happen a lot, or should I break up because it's not okay to have a crush while in a relationship?

  • It is normal to be attracted to multiple people at the same time.

    It is normal to love multiple people at the same time.

    It's normal to be a cheater, but no one will respect you or like you very much.

    Coming from my own experience, you don't love him. You're crushing. It's mere infatuation at this point. If you love someone you're not going to lust after someone else. Not if you're me anyways... :/ but this is normal and it shouldn't be. People toss the L word around too much nowadays. It is practically disposable now...

    You don't love him, simple.

    When you genuinely love someone (and you'll know when it happens), you can't even consider a relationship with anyone else, to be honest it wouldn't even cross your mind.

    So basically your like any other piece of shit human. You have no character or honor. Do the right thing and tell your dumb ass boyfriend he's not cutting the mustard and leave him. Then start living your life with dignity and honesty. I try to go out on as many dates as I can and fuck as many women as I can. But I always and I mean always let each and everyone of them know my full intentions up front. There is no better feeling then to be on the right side of things. Its called winning.

    If you like someone else you do not love him you just think you do. You can not love different people at once. Either you love him or you dont. Maybe you dont really love him. Maybe you are just attached since you have been together.

  • it's not fair to him. you should leave him because that is just being slightly cruel....go after this new guy you're crushing on. you obviously see something in him that you don't in your current bf

    Its not fair to your other man. If you like this other guy and thing you should be single than do it cause its not fair to have him love you and be there for you when you dont really want to be.

    I've gone threw this before(im a guy)
