my serious boyfriend of 3 years who I’ve been living with and have a dog with agreed on us seeing other people but he hasn’t gone out with anyone else yet and I already found someone who I’m catching feelings for more than I would’ve thought and I’ve only been talking to him online for 2 days. What does this say about me or about our relationship?

@sensitivePineapple6607 Maybe your bf is just more shy and will take more time to explore that option. If you both are okay with open, you aren't doing anything wrong. It's nice that you connected with someone new, and I hope it goes well.

Thank you @daydreamer47 the date went really well with this new guy I met. I’m worried though because I think it gave me the wake up call that my current relationship I’ve been in is not for me and hasn’t been for a very long time. This date made me feel free for the first time in years. I think I’ve been wanting my current relationship to end for a long time but now this might make it even harder to get out. I just know he will blame it on me meeting someone new and get jealous and more hurt. I don’t want to do that to him either.

@sensitivePineapple6607 Breaking up with someone else is really hard, but it is absolutely your right if you are unhappy in the relationship, plus it also allows the other person to find someone who really wants to be with them. It sounds like he is very reactive, but you deserve to do what is best for you even if he responds poorly. It's not your job to please him. *hugs*
