It's not hard to see OP is trying to get over a guy she fell in love with.
Why all the questions about how long they've known each other and what masters degree she has? If she says she's in love/strongly attached/feels amazing connection, that's what it is.
OP wants to know if she can forget this guy..the answer is it's impossible to forget. As some have mentioned, it can take a very long time. She should prioritise her family now and other hobbies
The OP had an on-line emotional affair with a guy whom she claims loves her.
She also claims that she loves the *guy* as well.
Yet she never met the guy in person.
So tell me this....
How in the world can you fall in love with someone whom you never met in real life?
I did break it off with the other guy, have you not read this thread at all? And I'm glad you aren't my husband as you are glad I'm not your wife. Lol.
I'm still struggling to let go of someone I had a thing with years ago. I know it's never going to happen and we don't even live in the same place but he is the only guy I've ever felt genuinely compatible with and he just made me feel great.Oh well

Everyone has a different definition of love. For some it is spiritual connectedness, for others, it is only love when they've lived together for years. And then there is the definition of very strong chemistry or a feeling they have a karmic bond. They may never have met in real life but through communications they established some bond. The reason I don't dispute OP's feelings is because she has a very strong conviction in what she feels towards the guy.
$6000/mo ?? I live in one the most expensive metro areas in the country, where even mediocre daycare is more than the cost of college tuition... and it wouldn't cost anywhere near that much to pay for childcare, especially considering that 2 of your 3 are in school all day.
It was $700 per week per child. You do the math for 3 children. That was for just a regular no frills daycare.

To develop those kinds of feelings, that deeply, and that intensely in such a short amount of time when she is married would mean that something is desperately missing in her life.
I know. I'm lucky and grateful the other guy is smarter than me and said exactly what you did and said we needed to back off. I knew I couldn't be satisfied with limited contact because of my feelings for him, so I've cut it off completely.
Try not to lose focus on your family while going though this heartbreak. Your kids need a mom that isn't in an emotional wreck. So, for the kids sake, hang in there.
Btw:Im wondering if he did say he loved you and wanted to be together? Would you have left your husband/family??? From what I'm gathering, the only reason why this didn't go any further is because the love wasn't reciprocated?

We mutually agreed if we both found ourselves single at the same time we'd pursue a more committed relationship. We also both agreed we had no intention or desire to leave our spouses.
