i (24f) am in a long distance thing w my gf (26f) we’ve been together for 3+ yrs n open for about a yr we set boundaries n rules n it’s been going fine except we argue nonstop lately
the person i’ve been hooking up w i kinda started catching feelings for even tho we both knew that a real relationship wouldn’t work we talked ab it a month ago n agreed we want diff things but the more time i spent w them the more attached i got i tried bringing it up to my gf but she didn’t wanna hear it
this past weekend i picked up the other person from the bar bc they needed a ride we talked ab some stuff going on in their life n then the next morning they told me they like me more than a friend but won’t be a second option esp since they know i’ve been thinking ab leaving my gf i just told them they have my number/snap if they ever need anything n left
later i posted a story saying i’m taking a break from socials n to text me if anyone needed me they saw it but now they unadded me on snap my body n mind r reacting like i just went thru a major breakup i haven’t stopped crying i talked to my gf n she was more mad that the other person caught feelings than the fact that i did
idk what to do i love my gf but there’s no romance anymore i’ve also decided to close the relationship for those who were gonna suggest that

Social media breaks are always a good shout. Protect your peace.
The other person has a point about not being a second option. Respect.
Closing the relationship is a start, at least.
Good on you for that.
LDRs are a different beast. Especially with the open thing.
Maybe a clean break is the move? Just sayin'.
Wow this sounds a bit too Complicated but I am quite sure some serious introspection will definitely be helpful to you in finding a way out.but one thing is for sure that sometimes relationships do fall out of Love and Non stop argument with your partner will definitely not make it any better but some Space and no contact may definitely help
Time for some serious introspection, bestie.Gotta figure things out.
It be like that sometimes. relationships are hard.
that's a whole mess. Sounds super complicated.
