Crushes - Yes or No?

I got a question from a woman in a monogamous marriage asking me how do I feel about crushes. Well, hmmm.

I think it's perfectly natural and reasonable to be attracted to other people. Just don't give them too much head space.

I have to laugh because I had a crush on Lenny Kravitz for years, to the point where I would refer to him as 'my second husband' LOL! Anyway he's a safe crush because it's not like I'm going to run into him just randomly going about my regular business, or if I did it's not like he'd try to get with me, you know? So that's how I feel about crushes...if you are in a monogamous marriage it's probably best if you keep crushes at a distance to lessen the temptation to stray. Remember monogamy is not natural to human beings so you must safeguard your commitment to be faithful! Turn your feelings back onto your husband; flirt with him and give him the fast eye and frequent touches. He will probably mirror that back to you and get you all hot and bothered...after a few days of that you won't likely spend time thinking about your crush and you will be wrapped up in your husband again.

I have to laugh because I call Johnny Depp my "boyfriend". Great advice about turning your attention back on your husband. It's so important to remember that you made a commitment for a reason.

Interesting point. I've actually thought about that...I made a little note of that to myself, when putting up my most recent post. Maybe I shall explore this one a bit more...
I enjoy reading your stuff. Keep it coming! (As if you'd actually stop - I suspect you won't.)
