Input: Text: this isn't a funny tifu, if that's what you're looking for, keep looking. today reddit, i am a scumbag. this happened a little while ago (a few hours) i guess i'm writing it down because i know the upstanding men and women of reddit will agree with my conclusion, and i could use a little egobruising.



when i was 16, i lived in another country. just before i moved, my then-crush and i started really talking to one another, and after three years of friendship, it was finally going somewhere. i moved before anything definitive happened. when i moved back to the states, i continued talking to her, even though i knew nothing would come of it. i moved on, she moved on, but there's always been a "what if?" nagging in the back of my head.



fast forward to present day; i'm in my early 20's, and i've been dating my current girlfriend for a number of years between 2-6 [i'd give the number, but anonymity and all that]. let me preface what i'm about to say with, i am, and have been a loyal so for the entirety of our relationship. half of our relationship was long distance (i went off to college somewhere else before i transferred back) and never once have i cheated; not physically, not digitally.



but, and here's the scumbag part, periodically throughout our relationship, i've had conversations with this other girl. they weren't anything special or significant, just catching up with her and shooting the shit. i never called her or anything like that, most of the conversations took place over facebook. however, after my girlfriend found out initally, she basically forbade me from talking to her. i won't comment on my opinion of this, and i do stop when she asks me to; but, sooner or later, i always find myself talking to her again.



i don't know why i do it. i'm perfectly content in my relationship, in all of it's aspects. but i always eventually find myself fanning the embers of that old flame. i am not, and never have been a poon-hound; it's just not my thing. when i talk to this other girl, i'm not expecting anything out of it; but i do feel a certain sense of satisfaction after our talks.



tonight was the 3rd or 4th time she's caught me doing this. reddit, i know it breaks her heart that i do this. although i already have somewhat, i won't defend my actions. i know and understand that what i have done -- what i did, is not right. but, i do not want to have to choose between either of them. if i had to pick, i would choose my so, and i have expressed everything i've said here to her; but, i also do not want to lose my friendship with this other person. i don't know why it is important to me, but it is.



some of you may be thinking, "well shit, i mean, you haven't cheated on your girlfriend." but each time i do this, i crush a small piece of her heart. i know i do; i can see it in her eyes. at this point, i'm rambling. i'm not looking for justification for my actions, i'm not looking for advice, and i probably won't be responding to any of the comments. i am a scumbag; and i'm not okay with it.
