I am a 40 year old man with 2 children. I got divorced 6 years ago and remarried August 2017. I dated a lot during my brief single period and fell in love with a woman named Shelly. Timing wasn’t right, we weren’t emotionally prepared to handle our feelings and this caused a lot of confusion and subsequently strife. We broke up after about 3 months. We would check in once in awhile and confirm we still thought about each other despite our relationship status. The thing is I always wonder what a life together would be like. We have alot of passion and are very s******* compatible. I feel like my current wife is a place holder who helps me look after the kids. I don’t know how to move forward, I want the best life for all of us. Any advice?

Leave it alone bro, you broke up for a reason. The wife you have now should be first ,not a ghost from your past that you wonder about.
Yeah that’s the kind of thing I need to hear and remind myself of. Thanks for taking the time to write.
Do you love your wife? If you did not why did you marry her. This other woman might bring passion but that does fade without love.
That’s another factor. The passion and overall connection with Shelly was profound. My hang up is the timing. I am tormented by what ifs. What would it be like if we were ready for each other. It could be amazing. My current wife is great. Sexy, smart, adventurous – everything. I appreciate what I have but this desire for the other has persisted all along. Thank you for your comments.
