Dear Faye,
Only You Can Know The Answer
Ultimately, the answer to whether or not you still love your boyfriend
can not come from anyone except you. It sounds as if you are at
least partially unsatisfied with one aspect of your relationship
because you're questioning whether or not you wish to stay involved.
In a perfect world, we would stay perfectly happy in our relationships
and never question them- but that, as you are painfully aware- is
not the case.
You May Be Wanting To Date Other Guys
On one hand, you could just be staying in this relationship because
it's what you know. Have you dated many other guys? Your feelings
for Clark may be caused simply because you feel, in some part of
your heart, that you need to see other guys before you decide your
boyfriend is the one you truly want to be with.
Date Other People
If you start noticing increased feelings for Clark, or start noticing
a pattern with your feeling gravitating away from your significant
other, then you might want to decide to date other people.
It Could Be A Passing Crush
On the other hand, you could just be experiencing pangs of your
relationship shifting from being new and exciting to having grown
older. Is there still passion? If you can say in your heart that
yes, there is passion, and that MOST of the time you do want to
be with the guy you've been seeing- then it is possible that you
could just have a relatively harmless crush on Clark.
If you start experiencing more than something harmless however,
you might want to interpret its meaning. Oftentimes however, women
develop harmless crushes on men- only to realize it's because those
men remind them of their boyfriends!
Try Out A Friendship With Clark
As for you and Clark, go ahead and try a friendship out. You might
discover that he does remind you of your boyfriend. But If there's
something more there, you might want to reconsider your current
situation.
