Iām (25f) demisexual and happily married to my best friend (25m), we recently moved to italy and weāre starting our life here. Weāve been working in a restaurant, and weāre making friends with our coworkers, which is nice, because we donāt know anyone in Italy, and weāre both very social so we need friends. But i started to feel attracted to one of our coworkers thats becoming our friend. It was nothing at first, but as we started to be closer, and talked about deep stuff and, well, developed the damn emotional connection, OF COURSE my demi-ass would start to feel things! I was so confused because i love my husband, but then i remembered reading about demisexuals not knowing how to deal with attraction once it shows (and the curse to always have a crush on friends). Well, i just dont know, im literally dreaming about him, when i see him at work my heart races, and its not that i want to have sex with him, i just wand to kiss (badly), and hug, get to know him better and tell him pretty things, which make me feel worse because its like a romantic thingā¦ on top of that, me and my husband decided recently to have an open marriage (but nothing never happened yet), and it intensifies the feelings because it makes me feel like im not cheating if i feel this way, but he have a girlfriend whoās also becoming our friend, soā¦ anyway, probably someone whoās not demi would just think ādamn heās hotā, but iā¦ i just feel like a teenager š
But as I said, I work with him, I canāt have some time apart. And yes, I know he has feelings for someone else, he has a girlfriend whoās also our friend. Guess I just have to live with it. The problem is that Im really intense and romantic, im worried someone will notice if I start acting weird. Not that id do something crazy, because im not impulsive (and not an asshole),i just cant hide my emotions well.
Whats bugging me isā¦ is it normal?? Like, allo people feel this kind of attraction towards people they find pretty all the time? How do they deal with it? Thatās why people cheat, or get jealous? Im with my husband for six years and since weāre together I never felt this way towards another person.

Its so weird because your girlfriend is always around when youāre with that person so youāre afraid theyāll notice what youāre feeling, and it makes this all more intense. Yeah, itās the same with me. I never thought Iād be in this situation since I only felt attraction for three people in my life (one of them being my husband lol). How do allo people deal with it all the time????
