Is it normal to be attracted to other people when you're married?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, it’s normal to notice or feel attracted to other people when you’re married. Attraction can happen without meaning you love your spouse less or want to act on it.

Being married doesn’t switch off your ability to notice other appealing people. A passing crush or spark is common, and it doesn’t automatically say anything bad about your marriage or your commitment.

What matters more is what you do with the feeling. Couples draw different lines around flirting, private messages, or pursuing a crush, so it helps to respect the agreements you and your spouse have. You can acknowledge the attraction without feeding it or acting on it.
