I don't know if it's just me, but I don't think it's a good idea to date someone when you're still in love with someone else.
To cut a long story short, my ex an I were having an affair. At the time things with my then 15yr partner had been bad for a while, we never saw each other, never did anything together including sex, been that way for bout a year, then I met Ryan (the one I still love) and we had a 9 month affair, fell in love, but unbeknown to me Ryan was seeing someone too, he was having an affair with me. Complicated I know. So I used to go and spend a week with Ryan every few months or so and my long term partner didn't care that I went, didn't care that Ryan and I would text all day, that's how bad things had gotten, he just thought me and Ryan were friends, the truth came out when we ended, whether he
did know but never said anything is anyone's guess, if he did, he never said anything and he never said anything when I told him, just glossed over it.
Towards the end things with the 15yr guy had become friendship rather than a relationship, just two people sharing the same space, it's all either of us had known for so long, we only officially ended end of November last year.
The last time I saw Ryan, we had fun everything was great, then he just stopped texting me and we eventually drifted apart, no goodbyes, no closure which hurt so much coz we were friends as well as lovers. I went back to living my non existence with 15yr guy and tried to forget about Ryan, I hadn't seen him since August last year before tonight.
I absolutely love and adore the man I'm with at the moment, he's a beautiful creature, gorgeous hot and very sexy, but I'll always love Ryan with all my heart too and seeing him tonight almost killed me. We chatted a bit, talked bout me finally having the courage to leave the 15yr guy and move up North, how he's still with the woman he was and that he's happy.
I did cry though coz Ryan hugged me goodbye, told me he'd missed me and that he'll always love me, i said the same back, coz it's true, then I left.
In a way seeing him was what I needed, it proved to my heart that it's time to move on. I have my gorgeous Rob now, and he's my future. I'm cuddled up next to him now while he snores in my ear and truth be told, I couldn't be happier.
Past is past. I realised that tonight, A piece of my heart will always belong to Ryan, a piece allocated for the memories but that's it.
It's me and Rob against the world now and I hope it always will be
