Love happens. Really, it does. Something is missing, we know we don't have it, and then we hope we can find it in the tumult of passion that begins all new relationships. But really, what are you going to get in a new relationship other than amazing sex and someone to fantasize about when you aren't busy?

Run. Away. Fast.
Just Do it.
Ultimately, you are in control of your own actions. So stop choosing to settle for less than you deserve. Oh, and then of course, ask yourself why you want to be with a potential cheater, anyway.

You know, it could be as simple as you, OP, are sexually attracted to the taboo. Married, partnered, unavailable people might turn your crank the way some people are into bears. The big question: why not just keep this to fantasyland?

What does "still not fully available" mean? Either someone is available or not, no? Where is the grey area?

You're a selfish person who doesn't think twice about messing up other people's lives, but would probably have a hissy fit and cry if someone did the same to you. Grow a pair.

So you like to pine for people?
Lure them away from their previous partners?
Think ache is romantic?

You know it hurts.
Maybe you are a masochist and a sadist, you just use emotions in stead of floggers and tie downs.

Just an FYI to those who think "unavailable" = in a relationship. It also means that the other person isn't emotionally available as well.

I have never stepped in to someone's relationship, I am speaking purely from the perspective of falling for people who aren't interested in pursuing a relationship. It might be because they're still hung up on an ex or just broke up or just not ready.

Still not fully available = not ready to pursue something.

In fact I have stayed away from people who are in relationships because I don't ever want to be "that person", so no, I'm not messing up other people's lives.

I understand because I am pretty much the other person the OP is referring to, i.e., I am technically no longer in a relationship but, because life is messy, I am still entangled with my ex for a variety of legit but totally non-romantic reasons. I'll spare everyone the boring details because this is someone else's confession, not mine. Suffice to say that if I could feasibly pursue something with someone else I would (and I do have a major crush on someone--hey, maybe it's the OP!! ha ha--but I am "still not fully available". Sigh.

You're afraid of truly committing to one person. It gets boring to be with just one person day in, day out. It's exciting to fantasize about what you can't have. I bet once you get it, (if you ever get it) you won't want it anymore.

Not available to you.
I understand that. It was not clear in your confession.
It did seem like you were lusting after a person in a relationship.

It is a difficult thing to navigate between what is said and what is done.

It is not about timing, an ex or anything...
if that person wants you they will come and get you. Or let the opportunity go, and lament about it all the days of their scared life.
