What Do You Do When You Love Two People?
Here we go. I've been married for 8 years. Recently me and my husband have separated. The last four months I've been seeing his brother. I'm in love with him. We've known eachother for 5 years. One of the problems is they live together. So I cannot see him that much. And if I do I have to be around the both of them. Which is really uncomfortable. Right now, my husband does not know. His brother is going to tell him later. But I seem to not get any idea of when he's going to tell him. He keeps saying later not now. I don't really know if this is something I want or go back with my husband. It's very hard.
What should I do?

Welcome to trap17 and I would like to say that be fair to your self and your partners and try to follow a mid way apart from being on either side. Try to convince them upon the other and slowly see whether they are comfortable with each other. And if it is so then you are going to be successfull other wise I don't know what to do.

This is for all future persons who are in love with two people, and it's as accurate as I can possibly achieve. It's something I'm experiencing right now. The first thing you would do in this situation is explain it to them both as honestly as you can. If they can't understand what you're going through, they aren't even worth the effort to try and maintain a solid relationship because they obviously don't care enough about you to give you time to yourself and think. The next step would be to look at both of their mannerisms; their actions, trustfulness, understanding, and caring all play a vital role in this. You want to picture what it would be like to be partnered with that person ten years from now. You want to ask yourself; are there any problems now involving each individual that you love. If there are, would they increase or decrease if you were married to them? Also, you must be certain of yourself of the magnitude of their love for you. Could it be a crush or true love? How long are they willing to wait for you? 2, 3 months? or even years. Most likely a problem like this wouldn't extend out this far, but it's a possibility. There is also the likelihood that the two people you're in love with are similar. You may think that you love two people, when in reality one of those loves could really be just qualities you love about one person that you can find in the one that you love. I hope that my explanation can help some future soul on down the road.

It is so hard when their are two people in your life. I think for many people their are two people because one makes up for the lack of attractive attributes that you would like to see in the only that you initially loved. I am married and have been for about fours years but last year I met someone and we became friends, just friends, and now he would like to have more. He would like to give me the world. I know that my friend can give me happiness in many ways, but I do wonder what I will miss. I wonder if the grass is greenier. I am scared that he too will have unfavorable attributes, as we are not all perfect. My marriage is anything but perfect and I am indeed willing to work on it, but my husband is not. He believes that it should just happen if you are meant to be. I don't know if I can ever be happy here and I believe I can be there, but I can't seem to take the leap...Why?

have you told both of them that you love the one, without the other knowing? if so it would be best to tell the truth now, before they find out - which they will - it won't be easy or painless and it may be catastrophic, but believe me its better that them finding out themselves. I know, because its happened to me. If you haven't told either of them, then I suggest you either don't do anything about it or choose one, which would probably solve it.

Well for me its a normal thing in life,I understand how complicated you are now.I have a friend like your situation falling inlove with a family man,although she have a partner too,he saw this guy and assuming and expected that in one day this man and my friend will be having a deepest and serious relationship,they are always saying that just go with the flow and just expect the unexpected happenings,the day is passing by there relationship is too much complicated they suddenly broke up maybe in a month but they already back to each other hand until now,she give up his first boyfriend maybe she have a huge reason why he give up this man although he love this also.One thing,if your in this situation a complicated situation just make sure that no one can hurt with this decisions,don't let the person hurting so much in pain with yor doing wrong.No one wrong if your happy enough but just be happy with no one hurt.I understand what is the situation but pls be understand also the feelings of the others.Be open minded be matured enough.Maybe I'm not in your place but one thing/txtmngr/images/smileys/smiley1.Gif I can assure this happen because theres a reason why you love each other.But you don't know how will it takes or it will end for a happy moments..

I'm struggling with this too. they both know, the wife found out the WRONG way. it's really rough. I don't know what to do. it just begs the question, do you stick it out and try and grow and change within the thing you have or go for the passion and risk be alone and single again.
if it were the 60's I might ask them both if we could all live together in the same house or at least try and open relationship. but that doesn't fly anymore. the heart is mysterious. I don't know how you love one person only for 50-60 years and not get to fall in love again.
