I am trying to avoid people who are so emotionally attached to me.
He will do things that he will regret someday.
I used to be so emotionally attached to some man, I would do anything. Now I knew if I did I would regret.
Get your hubby involved and get rid of him.

Hi Precious,

This other man is pretty dramatic. Does he know where you live? If not, change your number and stop seeing him. If he knows where you live you may have to get the police involved. Cheating on your spouse is never a good idea because things like this tend to happen. I truly hope you learned from this mistake.

Precious,

When you say you can't break it off, is it because you feel attached to both? You said it was "just" emotional-- but if you fall in love with someone it is a STRONG emotion. 

Unfortunately, someone's heart will be broken but you cannot keep tugging at both of them. If you are in love with this other man then you need to let your husband go. If you still love your husband and want to make it work, then the other man needs to be out of the picture. Either way, one person cannot be in your life any more. Does your husband know about this?
