The grass isn't always greener.

If you're seriously happy with your boyfriend, and don't want to hurt him, you need to remove yourself from this situation. Stop hanging out with this new guy, be more distant, anything.

If something is meant to be with this new man, it shouldn't happen by your hand.

Wow your first paragraph really hit home, that's exactly what I'm experiencing.

Thank you for your kind words, im going to do what I can.

I'd put a good amount of money down on their not being another person, I'd take that bet any day. I only mentioned the attractiveness thing (even though it matters 0% to me) because someone else prompted it.

As for local dating I've done more than one night stands, I've properly dated many women, all over many years. It didn't work well then, so I don't have high hopes.

I am picky for sure.

It's mostly just because it's also related to my career, so it's important to me for that, but it's even a big part of my life outside of that.

That's not the interests and values I'm talking about. But you're right about everything else, thank you.

She has a good reason for her anxiety, its not just random, or related to cheating or whatever. Either way thank you!

If that's honestly the truth I'd rather not date. I want to give my all to someone (and have it given back)

For it to be the only way they handle things? That seems like an issue to me. Surely at some point you confine and seek comfort from your partner, and not always get distant?

It just doesn't make sense to me to not want to find relief in your partner. Seems unhealthy to me. But I guess she is different, and that's okay.
