If you are having thoughts like this then you should NOT be engaged. End your relationship while you can. You have A LOT of growing up and maturing to do. Good luck.
This is the best answer so far....

Need some advice. Without giving too much info, I am a locally competitive male in my late 20's. I live in a pretty large town with a dedicated running scene, owing to its amazing running trails and parks. Over the last year, I have developed a very close relationship with a female runner close to my age. She is my first new female friend in several years. We became training partners because of our interests and running performance. She is pretty fast, so we do easy runs, long runs, and occasional track work together.
Here is the catch, I am engaged. My fiancee has been extremely supportive. She occasionally runs, but really likes that I have someone I can run with seriously. My fiancee and my training partner have met and are friendly. My training partner is also in a long-term committed relationship. I don't want to cheat on my fiancee or be a home-wrecker. I just feel a strong infatuation toward my training partner. We spend a lot of time together and often text back and forth for hours.
So LR braintrust, give me some advice. I have a crush on my training partner, what should I do? Is it just speed goggles? Do we need to stop being training partners? Will the crush fade? Do I just need to get too fast to run with her? Are pics required?

Get the strange. You will feel so alive!!!
I think the texting is a bad sign. Or it could be a good sign if you do not like your fiance.
You risk losing both girls if you open up to your training partner but you do not want to
settle for second either. Now if you have been dating your fiance for a long time and she is
truly your best friend then why do you need more from females. One female is too much for
most guys. That's why the divorce rate is do high.
I understand wanting to sleep with multiple women. You will always have that desire.
You must look for something more.
Like the man said "Get the strange." You will learn a lot and probably lose both women but you will learn
a lot and maybe meet someone. I am not in favor of sleeping together before marriage but it appears
obvious you do not feel that way.
Your fiance may have already moved on. Most guys do not think of that.

I still say just always looking at her nostrils when talking to her is all he needs to do.

That was excellent...
There's more than training going on - you have a "crush" and text for hours. This is an affair in early stages. Whether that happens depends in part on how your training partner feels and their situation. If you do cheat, assume your fiance will find out. How do you think that's going to play out? You don't really need folks on a running forum to tell you if it's OK to cheat or not.

If your partner is free , then feel free to show him your feelings. First you need to become friends. Then you can show your care for him. For example, you can bring 2 coffees in the morning, one is for you, the other for him. And you can write on his cup of coffee a beautiful quote about love ( you can take it here https://urbanfamilytalk.com/love-quotes-for-him/ ). Love is a wonderful thing . I think this is the best thing that can happen to people. I wish you great happiness. And I hope you can win his heart. But it's important to me that he's free . Because you can't build happiness on someone else's misfortune.
I am a Durham NC runner. Since this past fall I had slowly been falling for my training partner and was letting it go unchecked too long.
I just want to say thank you! That was the best advice I've seen on this topic. Been struggling with a limerence for my training partner and it has been killing me. This doesn't answer what I need to do but it sure frames the way I seriously need to look at what is going on.
I’m currently having the same scenario except I’m only 20. Advice?
This post was removed.
Grass is not always(almost never) greener on the other dude if the fence. Examine your relationship with your fiance. The running partner thing could be a crush or something more but examining your current ltr will probably answer that for you. I'd say it's probably a crush because it's new.
What did Man Overboard choose to do?
Will we ever know......
Could he have dumped the girlfriend and had a quick fling with the runner friend. Could he be Kwame from Love is Blind and cry about having to leave Portland to move to Seattle to marry Chelsea when he really wanted Micah?

Kill her.
If it is not good and morally justifiable, it is of the devil and shall be DESTROYED.
OP here, I did in fact kill her. Then I dumped my fiancé too, and invested in crypto right at the correct time, I’m now a crypto billionaire and have moved to Greenland to avoid law enforcement and start anew. I have interacted with zero females.
