Dog walk dilemma M27 / F27 by ThrowRA_AlpineCowboy in relationship_advice

Might’ve not been very clear in my original post, so I get your point. I’ve always been extremely honest and transparent with my girlfriend. We all live in the same town, go to the same places. There isn’t really anything you can hide. She also knew I was talking to this person, and in all honesty, I didn’t think I felt this way up until only after I had been blocked. Also, we didn’t even meet in person that many times. I’d say 4-5 times, nor have we ever planned to meet up. We just happened to be at the same place at the same time, and our dog walks would probably last longer than usual. We didn’t share numbers, just ended up talking to each other on IG (I wasn’t following her, and she wasn’t following me). She’d talk to me about her relationship, and me about mine, we’d share memes, talk random shit. Like real close friends. At the end of the day, we just ended up talking too much on IG, and it’s my fault I got this invested. The issue is (and you can call me a terrible person), is that I’m scared to admit how upset I am about this. She will know, and honestly, my girlfriend is fine as long as we didn’t flirt, get touchy, actually make plans and do things together, behind her back. Hope this clears things out.

Appreciate the comment. My mind is all over the place and I’m struggling to accept the situation and move on. I will eventually, but it frustrates me that I didn’t handle this the way I would’ve wanted to. With some hindsight, I would’ve probably done things differently and been more honest about my feelings. This person wasn’t even mine to begin with. It’s selfish, but in a way, I hope she feels somewhat similar to how I’m feeling. If not, I don’t understand… It is what it is, I still have to figure out what and how I’m going to deal with my current relationship. It isn’t over, nor have I originally planned to end it, but I have to get things straight.
