I've seen something similar a few times, but never actually experienced it until now.


There was this girl at work. The moment I saw her I knew I wanted to be with her. I was seriously dating someone else at the time and did everything possible to say 'hello' and other minor things over two years just to avoid my feelings.

I was about to leave the job, so I started talking to her a bit more, still dating the same girl as before (we were living with each other). The last day there, she is the last person I see, and I duck into a different room, thinking I'm safe for good.

Wrong. I see her through a window while I'm playing volleyball, ordering a drink at the bar. I message her later that night, we end up doing it for awhile. These feelings I've had for this girl, this idea I had of her, all come true. I decide I have to break up with my gf, I can't take it. I can't help it.

We break up. I end up going out with this other girl. It has been incredible. The other night I walked for three and a half hours with this girl, in the middle of the night, in sandals, and then cuddled with her on a bench for another hour (no, we're not homeless!).

It has been going so amazingly well, and I've felt infatuation, the excitement over newness, but it feels completely different. I have never felt like I can so be myself and still change for the better. I've become closer with my family, I've cut down my bad habits, I've put more effort into everything.

I can't even explain the feeling. It's something I knew immediately, and could not get rid of no matter how hard I tried. It's really the first time I can say that I can't put something into words honestly.

Ok, this topic is pretty useless, but I needed to share, and find out if others have had similar types of feelings with someone in their life. Obviously they have, and there's a lot of doom and gloom and penis discussions on this forum, that I think some positive stories would be helpful.

What you are describing is being in love. Congratulations! Don't screw it up. You apparently have never been in love before, but from how you speak about her and your situation, you are now. Be happy!

It's called "chemistry" And you two certainly have it! Enjoy, there's no need to explain love

I'm so envious...I wish someone felt that way towards me. Your story brought a smile to my face.

Enjoy every minute of it. This is what true love feels like. It makes you aspire to be a better person. Best wishes.

I guess I have a different take on this. I feel bad for the first girlfriend that you were seriously dating and living with. The moment you saw the new girl you knew you wanted to be with her. Hmm, interesting....but not surprising.

So do I. The OP should have manned up at the time instead of dragging the first girlfriend around for two more years and then cheating on her. Sorry, but that's a d*ck move.

We can all feel sorry for her, but should he have stayed with her THE REST OF HIS LIFE once he knew his heart was elsewhere? I don't think so - she was his girlfriend, not his wife.

Word to the wise...when true love comes along all other relationships pale in comparison.

Until THAT has happened no one should ever get married, because you do risk hurting your spouse when/if the right one comes along later down the line.

He avoided even speaking to her for 2 years just to protect his relationship with is girlfriend - he obviously cared and tried to do the right thing.

In the end he had to follow his heart.

Well, perhaps it's called "penis sharing", as you decided you would share yours with another while you were seeing another.

Ahh.......ain't love grand?
