Resolved Question

I was engaged for almost 2 years then I cheated?

on my fiance one night at a party, since then everything is different. I have pushed myself away from him because I feel like he deserves better than me. He is such a great guy and he deserves so much better. Anyways, during all of this I came into contact with an ex from middle school, we started talking again and realized there was still something there, see the thing is we never actually broke up my parents just moved us away when I finished 9th grade then he moved to Missouri and we just lost contact. I actually moved to Indiana for a month and tried to have a relationship with him, but it didn't work neither of us had anything jobs, place to live,money so i decided to come back to my fiance in Oklahoma where I don't have to worry about things. Why is it that I can't stop thinking about the other guy? I love both of them and i dont know what to do... Can anyone help?

Cheating isn't the end of the world. What seems more important is not that you cheated once, but how you felt aferwards... which is a) more distant from him and b) closer to another person outside the relationship.
Your fiancee deserves to know that you are not emotionally committed to the idea of marriage. Then he can make a choice, at the moment you are denying him the right to be make an important choice about his life.

And finally, this may simply be a grammar error, or it may have more meaning... I note that you write "I *was* engaged..." rather than "I *have been* engaged..." - almost as if you don't regard yourself as engaged any more?

Are you looking for someone to give you a reason to leave your fiance? Any relationship worth having is worth the work it takes to keep it going. If you left quickly to come back to your fiance why do you think you did that? If you really loved the other man you would have stayed there. I think you need to consider your options without the men. You may find that you are using them without even realizing it. Good luck.

If you are thinking about someone else its fairly clear you arent in shape to be marrying him.

If you want to be with him, you should tell him everything and give him the right to marry you knowing your indescretions.

It doesnt matter if you never broke up. Dont be with your fiance just to avoid being alone. Its not fair to him or you either one.

You are thinking about the other guy because you love him.

You make things really complicated and they don't need to be. What the hell are you doing in a relationship? It doesn't sound like you want a partner or friend at all. Is a fiance like a status thing for you? Why would you treat a friend like that much less someone you are engaged to? The cheating isn't so horrendous as the stringing someone along that you're obviously no longer interested in. Let him go and give him a chance to find someone who is actually interested in him.

You really should end this with your finance... come clean.
You want to marry out of love not out of convenience...
If you think you want someone else.. have at it..but you need to end it with your fiance first. This is extremely unfair to him.
good luck

Simple people get bored after a while and want to feel that cheap thrill again.
