Totally possible. In fact, I believe that we'll all fall in love a number of times over the course of our lives, and that we'll never *fully* get over past loves. They're such an important part of our personal history! Here's the thing: Monogamy is a bit of a societal construct, and it's impossible to completely ignore our attractions to others, especially considering that the new-romance excitement almost always fades. ... I can't advise you who to choose. Just know that -- unless you're up for exploring an open relationship -- you're going to need to carefully consider what's driving your love for each person and then make a decision.

ha ha... the temptations to have the *excitement* of a new love.

Human nature is to want something new every time, and that human nature works magic to not let you stay in one relationship for long... if you give in you will have the exact same problem a few yrs from now because you will again want the excitement of the 'new love'..

this is a imp point in your personal development, what you decide will shape your life in future...

I have been there.If you love your boyfriend I would stay with him.The grass looks greener on the other side ,but it's not always better, believe me.
