It can definitely be a tricky conversation! Honesty in a relationship is important, but it’s also crucial to be sensitive to your partner’s feelings. If I were to share my thoughts, I’d aim to frame it in a way that emphasizes my attraction as a natural human experience, rather than a judgment of my partner’s worth.
For example, I might say, “I came across someone who’s really attractive, but that doesn’t change how I feel about you. I appreciate what we have together.” This way, I’m being honest while also reassuring them that my attraction doesn’t diminish my commitment to our relationship.
Ultimately, the response would depend on the trust and communication dynamic in the relationship. How has your experience been with conversations like this?
