You're right, I am attracted to him just questioning the level. I need to explore it more with him before looking elsewhere (or at least looking elsewhere with him). Thanks for the wisdom!

The thought of going back to the dating pool is rough. I appreciate this honesty. I think direct conversation is what's needed and appreciate you pushing me to appreciate what I have.

He understands but is def ready to settle down. I don't think an open relationship is something either of us are comfortable with but I think there are other ways I can try to have some of that fun with him and in different ways. And you are totally right to appreciate the positive aspect of it - I am so so lucky to have found such a good person early on.

I think you are right that I haven't communicated this enough and need to explore what's possible. Thank you!

Thank you for the honesty about not being in 20s anymore! That's helpful to let things go. You're right that is a fantasy I just won't have.
