It’s Not A Gray Area; It’s Just Wrong: 7 Ways You Can Betray Your Partner

Reminiscing about what could have been

Sometimes someone from the past drops into your life—someone who you almost got with, or who there was always sexual tension with. They move to your town. They start running in the same social circles as you. But now, you’re taken. It’s immature but sometimes those people will try to engage you in conversations that start with something like, “It’s a shame we never got together.” It’s always flattering—yes. But, how would your partner like to know that you responded to that with, “I know. I was always so attracted to you.” How would you like to stumble across a little instant message chat between your partner and someone else that looked like that? If somebody from the past tries to get you into a conversation like that, you should immediately say, “Well, I’m honestly really happy with the person I’m with now.” End of story.
