Even if you see a guy who looks attractive..... it isn’t the same as what u feel or see in your boyfriend. Think about how humans react as a whole ..... we all look at attractive people, things , cars ...ect.....That’s what we all do. If that was not a part of being human , we would all have to wear BLINDERS ......it’s just a thought.....(that is normal for all humans ) usually theses thoughts just filter through as normal thoughts (which they are)...So, you are normal .......... Odc will catch a normal passing thought and throw it back , always in the worst possible scenario ..Recognize the operating system of ocd ....practice and learn .... OCD DESERVES NO CREDIT AND IT IS NOTHING.....YOU ARE EVERTHING .... no guilt for being human like everyone of us ....

This is so true. I used to feel think what you said to other people when they would post about it but when it happened to me I felt like it was different and I confess so much I felt like I needed to confess. However, that’s true, usually it’s something that would just pass but my OCD is making me think it’s a serious problem that needs to be confessed to him

So you know why it feels different ( because of your OCD ) .........soooo what if it is uncomfortable for a while .... it does not need to be confessed ....maybe write it down and throw it away, ....... but of all the things, people, everything communicated in the whole .... I would not listen to OCD ..... guaranteed 100% to lie to you ..... I know this is easier said than done ✅ but u can start now ..... There are a lot of attractive people in this world..... but your boyfriend is obviously not only attractive but a million other assets. Too .....

I ended up confessing and he’s so mad at me that I looked at someone else and now won’t talk to me. My fear was real.

Feeling guilt
I sometimes come back to this particular feeling and thought. So when I first met my partner I wasn’t immediately attracted to him. I don’t think I thought he was ugly by any means. I met him at work along with another new go worker and I thought the other co worker was cuter than my current partner. That alone fills me with guilt but what’s even WORSE was that I told a friend “Oh man I wish that guy was in our group instead of the other.” Something like that. I feel so much freaking guilt over that comment. I adore my partner and this always fills me with shame. I think my partner is the most beautiful man in the world and I kick myself that that was my first thought or worlds about him. I don’t know what to do. I want to confess but how do you even say that to your partner? I just feel so guilty and awful inside….

I really really need input
Sometimes I catch myself looking at people, specifically men, a little too intently. I feel like I do it to seem prettier or more attractive, but I also think kinda enjoy seeing how they get flustered, I’m not sure. Even though it never goes beyond that, I still feel like I have cheated on my boyfriend, or at the very least, that I am being disrespectful to him. I feel like I’m almost flirting. I don’t know if this is some sort of distortion and or if this is normal. I’m really freaking out to the point where I’m nauseated. Please help. I can’t stop panicking.

feeling like i did something
I often feel like i did something wrong even tho i am positive i didn’t, my boyfriend and i have been together for like 6 months and i’ve been completely loyal to him the whole time but recently i’ve been feeling the need to confess that i cheated on him even tho i didn’t and there’s absolutely no proof that i did something even close, i don’t talk to other men and if i do my boyfriend has full access to my phone and it’s usually a friend or me asking a simple question but i still feel the need to confess even tho i’ve done nothing wrong🥲 someone please help it’s so confusing
