Re: Realizing you have feelings for someone else when you're in a relationship...

OP

A. We've actually both agreed on that.

B. I'm really tempted to say this, but I just can't help but feel like only an awful person would do this because it's not fair to the kids. At the same time it's also not fair to kids to grow up with parents who are only together because they feel obligated, but I don't know if I'm only thinking that because I'm trying to justify this to myself.

C. That actually hadn't occurred to me, but it seems...mean-spirited? I don't know. If a divorce/separation happens, that needs to be their decision. It's not my choice to make. But at the same time, if it was me I'd want to know my spouse had feelings for someone else, but I feel like telling them would make things even worse than they are now.

Ugh, I just don't know.

By telling you, he chose to involve you. Whatever you decide to do, or whoever you decide to tell, he could have avoided by simply not telling you. This is all on him.

Or her. Or w/e. Noticed a gender wasn't mentioned, but it doesn't matter.

I know it feels like B is your problem, but B is not your problem. Your co-worker's marriage is broken, it'd be broken with or without you.

Though you should note that while you feel bad about potentially breaking up a family and hurting those kids... your co-worker doesn't. Otherwise he'd work on his marriage and keep his mouth shut about the crush he has on his co-worker, i.e. you.
