Is there someone you know you'll love for the rest of your life, but have accepted you won't be together? How do you feel about it now?

I love my husband so much and never want to hurt him.

Before him, I dated his best friend, who I loved (albeit differently than I love my husband). I still love him - not in the way I love my husband, but in a different way that is unique to him. Sometimes I reminisce about when we were dating, and I miss those times. Sometimes, I get ridiculously jealous when he dates other women, but I have to hide it because even though my husband isn't an overly jealous person, he is very much jealous of my previous relationship with his friend.

At the end of the day, I believe if I didn't marry my husband, I would still be having a dysfunctional on/off relationship with his best friend. However, I've come to terms with the fact that it is over because the truth is, even if I love my ex, and maybe he loves me - I don't know (seems like it sometimes), we both love my husband more than we love each other. And honestly, my husband and I work well together. We have a nice life together. His friend and I fought all.the.time.
