How to make a decision in one of two..Need help!

Hi everyone, long stories short, I need help!

And here comes the story..

I used to have many (watches) for long time and had really enjoyed them all separately. And then I have decided to find my the one and the only, and gave my decision on my grail..and got married with her..and have had so many good times together..had it with me every single day without any hesitation..that was a miracle. She was mine, and I was so happy..I was not even looking at any others, and thinking I'll never look for one another..never and ever..
Everything was fine..Than I met her! WTF!
Started to thing about her more and more day by day, than realised that, its not gonna be that easy to forget.. she could be mine. but hey, I already had my precious..What was happening? I love them both! And why is that thing happening to me? Is it normal, or what? What m I supposed to do? To go after what I desire or try to keep what I already have..I do not have a chance to have them both and need to make a decision..It s just like I guess what you all feel when you already have a daytona or sub but dream about a gmt or explorer..
I need any advice..What would you do if you were me..

Grass is always greener...

But if you've had the same watch for a few years, a changeup might be nice.

Keep the old one for use at home, and get the new one to increase life quality when you are in need of variation.

Oh! Just saw that you cant have them both. Tricky. You need then to be sure that the new one will do for you what the old one does, and if so, change! You can probably get her back if you change your mind. Good luck!

Why deny yourself the pleasure? Its not like the other watch when worn will feel betrayed and try to choke the wrist, or purposely give the wrong time, or start to tick like a quartz watch.

Just don't let one know about the other. That always ends badly.

hahaha.. Exactly what I was thinking.

Make sure none of them find out. If you are that good, you can make it happen.

I have to be honest I was a little confused upon reading the post. But who am I to judge, we are all wis here.

Feel free to shop around. Watches don't have access to your Johnson or bank account.

I wish it was that easy to flip from one another..but it is not. And I see that it is possible to have them both, but how? I really dont feel good for having two of them, at which one is not going to be loved that much somehow..
Anyway, thank you all for your advices..Time will show what will happen

Love this thread. If the other woma... oops, I mean watch is pulling you in then go for it. I bet what you have now will let you come back but as many know here it will probably cost you.

Can you post a picture of what you've got and what you are thinking of getting? I'm sure there's plenty of expert advisers on this forum to guide you right!

Hi again everyone, I am back after almost 4 years..When I looked back the old massages I have realised that I disappeared immediately.
During those 4 years, I have had many others but I still am loving my the one and the only. Some days hanging with the new ones, some days not..At first it was kinda weird to have more than one to have and love but after some time, I think I have got used to it...

That's some comeback after Four years but I Know the feeling .I've had a few on the go at the same time over the last four years myself ,& at first it kind of feels wrong . It takes some juggling about ,and even some subterfuge but it can be done .
