Could it be you're feeling this way because things aren’t going
well in your current relationship? Or, maybe you’re only
physically attracted to this new girl? You may think about what
you would lose and what you would gain by "leaving" and
by "staying." Your answers to these questions may help
you understand what you're feeling in this moment.
It could be helpful to start by looking at your current
relationship. Have you considered whether this new person is a
ticket out of a relationship you no longer want to be in? Or,
rather, would you want your current relationship to become more
open to the idea of seeing other people (if your girlfriend also
welcomes this opportunity)? It’s also worth considering that
maybe you need some "alone time" - not to be with
either person so that you can decide what's best for you at this
time.

The World War II love affair between lovely Frenchwoman Solange
Bertrand and American GI-turned-actor Sam Walker burned too
brightly and ended in tragedy, leaving their three young
daughters orphaned. Megan, the youngest, adopted by a loving
family, grows up to be a doctor in Appalachia. Alexandra, adopted
by a wealthy family, marries a powerful man with an impeccable
pedigree. Hilary, the oldest (and the only one who remembers her
sisters), enters the sordid world of foster care before going out
on her own to work her way up to being a New York news producer.
In the pursuit of success and stability, Hilary foregoes building
a personal life, especially when her efforts to locate her
sisters hit a dead end. But when high-priced private investigator
John Chapman is hired to reunite the three sisters, the secrets
and lies that kept the women apart--and bound them together--are
revealed and the love only sisters can share blossoms again.

Stella Grant is every bit a seventeen-year-old…she's attached
to her laptop and loves her best friends. But unlike most
teenagers, she spends much of her time living in a hospital as a
cystic fibrosis patient. Her life is full of routines, boundaries
and self-control - all of which is put to the test when she meets
an impossibly charming fellow CF patient named Will Newman.
