Hi. I'm new to dailystrength. Just joined today. I joined this particular group because, well, I don't know how to build healthy relationships. I can't afford to go out to meet new people, so I've been looking online for the last few years. With a few exceptions, this hasn't gone well for me. I've met people, but really none of them where "quality people". I'm not a snob. I don't consider myself superior to anyone. That said, I have standards for the kind of people I want to socialize with. So, my struggle is that I'm a very sexual person, and anytime I meet an attractive woman online, only seeking a platonic relationship, I just can't help but try to pursue a sexual relationship with them. Hell, the last girl I met is married and has a child, and, despite our both seeking a strictly platonic relationship, we ended up sleeping together and developing feelings for each other. Now, I've stopped talking to her, because it was just too hard to want someone whom I couldn't have. That, and I didn't want to break her family up by fucking up her marriage. So, this is my struggle. Anyone else in the same boat?

You wrote that . "anytime I meet an attractive woman online, seeking a platonic relationship. I just can't help but try to pursue a sexual relationship with them"
You can help it, you choose not to and that's your choice but you aren't controlled by this ..... You're letting desire control you
Maybe don't make friends with married people who you find attractive
MeetUp's can be a good way to meet new people in a variety of scenarios .... There are some MeetU'ps that just meet for coffee and conversation....
It may be an inexpensive way to meet new people.... Some take hikes ..... there are MeetUp's for dances however you'd just have to pay for yourself
There are so many it might be a way to seek one out that may have an interest that you also have
There is also a Healthy Sex board on here that may be of help.... Big hug.....xo

People who cheat on their spouses are pieces of shit human beings. So you are choosing to associate yourself with scum. Expect more for yourself.
and you were the person that the spouse cheated with
you knowingly chose to so
realize that a shit human being was attracted to you
i've heard that like seeks like
Also, the people you socialize with are a reflection of your current standards. So apparently your standards included cheaters, regardless of what you claim.
