Why should you repress those feelings ? Unless they don't hurt you or hurt others; I see absolutely no reason to hide them or not act on them. What makes them "sinful" is you deciding they are sinful according to some made up rules you read in a book.

  - Rule nb 1: Avoid harming yourself as much as you can.
  - Rule nb 2: Avoid harming others as much as you can.
And very importantly :

  - Rule nb 3: Let others be.

You obviously do not believe in self control. I don't know in which culture eyeing your neighbor's wife is OK.
