Is it normal to be attracted to people who aren't your partner?
Yes—being attracted to someone else while you’re in a relationship is common. Attraction is a feeling, not a betrayal; what matters is how you handle it and what boundaries you and your partner have agreed on.
Being in a relationship doesn’t switch off your ability to notice or feel drawn to other people. It can be a passing spark, a crush, or simply thinking someone’s attractive—and it doesn’t automatically mean you love your partner less or want to leave.
People differ on what they’re comfortable with: some don’t mind talking about crushes, while others prefer not to. If the attraction starts shaping your choices or bumping up against your relationship’s boundaries, it may be worth thinking honestly about what you want and talking with your partner.
