Is it normal to feel attracted to other people while in a relationship?
Yes, it’s normal to notice or feel attracted to other people while you’re in a relationship. What matters is how you handle it and whether your actions respect the boundaries you and your partner have agreed on.
Being in a relationship doesn’t switch off your ability to find other people attractive. A passing crush or a “wow, they’re cute” moment doesn’t automatically mean you love your partner less or that anything is wrong with your relationship.
People differ on what they’re comfortable with: some don’t mind hearing about a crush, while others would rather not know the details. Attraction itself is common; flirting, secrecy, or acting on it is where your relationship’s boundaries matter. If the feeling keeps pulling your attention away from your partner, it may be worth thinking about what you want and talking honestly about it.
