    Hi,

    Just wondering if anyone could advise me..

    have been in a relationship with a wonderful man for 5 years... Im 24 and so is he. He is brilliant, so loving and caring and is my best friend. I would love to spend the rest of my life with him. But i suffer from low self esteem, have never been on my own and wonder sometimes if i could ever be on my own. Im over weight, with little motivation. I know he loves me for who i am but im not sure if anyone else ever would. I have a terrible relationship with food,the worse i feel about myself the more i eat.

    anyway, I have started to have feelings for someone else. He's way out of my league and im feeling guilty as my bf deserves better than this. Im just not sure that i can be with him when i dont know if i can be with myself if that makes sense?

    Any advice?

    hey ahh hun im kinda da same to be honest i feel that way a lot od the time but the 5 years shows that he is completly in love and attracted to u still otherwise he wouldnt be with u... maybe start a food diary thats what i am tryin to do and watch wat i eat and maybe jus doin bit of exercise to make yourself feel better,
    just think if you guys made it this far you know it will be ok and he wants you for you... and believe me im still like you a lot of the times just have good and bad days

    Hi OP. I think you definitely do need to sort out your self esteem issues asap. However there's another pressing issue here and that is whether you really love your bf, if you're having feelings for somebody else. It seems to me that you're using your bf because you think nobody else will want you. I can 100% promise you thats not the case. But you can't string him along. How can you want to spend the rest of your life with your bf if you're having feelings for somebody else?
