If you are in a relationship, are affairs of the heart

unethical?

harmless in the long run?

necessary sometimes?

beneficial?

Just life, mang?

Plain stupid?

Affairs of the heart mean that your heart isn't into the relationship. You will hurt yourself and others along the way.

Mixed bag, imo.

Sometimes they feel necessary, especially when you've been in relationship for a while and you're both in a rut.

I am guessing that if you don't ever go beyond the heart, it will work itself out to it's own conclusion.

I'll say having a crush is normal and simply needs to be kept in check.

Probably a good idea to try to reconnect with life partner and determine where you both are...

I'm with Ruby, a mild infatuation here and there along the way is just being human. As per Scooter, yeah if it goes beyond just being a 'fleeting flight of fancy', then it might be a different deal

Or, that your heart is in two places at once. That can happen, imo.
