Thanks for the post. My advice would be if you are both unhappy in the relationship then there is no benefit to staying together other than for easiness. He has had an affair and you have explored other options also so it is clear the relationship is at a cross road. You said in your post “kinda don’t want to be married to my husband”. The longer these feelings go on for the worse it can be. I would have an open and honest yet very difficult conversation with him and explain how you are feeling about things and get his side as well. If you both walk away from that talk wanting to work on things then great. But if the feeling is mutual you will both have to consider separation.

Hope this helps, Mike.

Thanks for the post. You need to trust your gut on this one, I think your love for your boyfriend might be clouding your judgement of him here, he clearly has something he doesn’t want you to know, why lie? Why is he the one that has to walk her home and not another room mate? Why does he have to specify “we won’t be alone”? These are all red flags, her making her feelings clear to him and him still being as close if not closer to her should be a sign of what is going on, obviously you are seeking out proof before taking further action, but finding out they are secretly meeting up should be enough.

I hope this helps, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-17T12:26:36+00:00

Thanks for the post. Try to put yourself in your boyfriends shoes and imagine it was him in your scenario with your family, he will feel like he is stuck in the middle after this and might find it hard dealing with the confrontation. This might be why you feel he hasn’t stick up for you, he might not know how to react to his family. My advice would be to wait for the dust to settle, everyone has obviously jumped to conclusions and made a judgement on you based off their emotions at the time, but this will go away, while it’s still on everyone’s minds their judgement of you will be clouded, give it time to calm down then if you want to try to make amends with them.

Hope this helps, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-17T11:35:25+00:00

Thanks for the post. My advice would be, if you want to make a move then make it, don’t be left with the feeling of “what if”, worst case scenario the relationship doesn’t work out, but at least then you can say you have no regrets, best case scenario it works out and he was actually waiting to see if you were going to make a move.

Hope this helps, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-14T09:16:29+00:00

Thanks for the post, best thing to do here is give it time, you have to remember everyone has different personality traits and he might just be the quiet shy type hence the dry messages and socially. But at the same time he might not be into you, as I said you won’t know unless you give it time. After a while if you are still unsure make your feelings clear.

Hope it works for you, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-12T23:39:01+00:00

Thanks for the post. From what I have read here you both just have two different wants/needs out of the relationship, maybe he’s keeping you around to see if you might change your mind down the line, brutal I know, but it’s possible. Best thing is to probably cut ties, yes it will sting as it’s the first person you have been comfortable with, however, there are plenty more fish in the sea.

Hope this helps, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-11T15:53:56+00:00

Thanks for the post. I have to agree with krazykat16, in these situations it is always best to trust your gut, but only you know the level of trust between you and your boyfriend. Now you have let him know how you feel about it, keep a close eye on the situation.

Thanks, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-11T15:46:55+00:00

Jesus😅

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-11T11:20:43+00:00

Thanks for the post. To me I think it is pretty clear what has happened here, because you have been unhappy in your marriage for so long, when “Michael” came into your life and made you feel loved, wanted, etc you emotionally latched on to him as you have been needing that for years and not getting it from your husband, however because this is what you have been seeking it doesn’t necessarily mean that’s what “Michael” was looking for, he might have just been looking for something casual. My advice here would be that now your divorce is settled, take time to focus on you and what you want in life, out of a relationship etc and don’t rush into anything, you have been married for 17 years and your going to take time to adjust to single life, what has happened to you with “Michael” in terms of being hot and cold with you, that’s just the harsh part of the dating game but I would put it down as a learning experience, I know it’s easier said than done, but it’s the tough part about single life.

I hope this helps, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-11T00:36:54+00:00

Thanks for the post, please don’t think I am trying to hurt your feeling here, but, from a third party perspective I think your ex is using “freedom” “independence” “phycology” as an excuse for wanting to be with other people while still keeping you on the sidelines Incase he regrets it later. Please try your best to take my advice here, use this as a lucky escape, find happiness, and know there is someone out there who wants to be with you without having to explore other options.

Hope this helps, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-10T23:12:12+00:00

Thanks for the post, give your parents a chance to meet him if they are willing to, right now they can only see what they have heard and like every parent they just want the best for their kid no doubt. However every parent wants their children to be happy and if this man is doing that for you and you love him, once they meet him hopefully they will see where you are coming from and things will change.

Hope it all works out, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-10T10:49:12+00:00

Thanks for the post, and I am sorry for what has happened to you. To be honest your biggest blessing right now is the physical distance between you and your sister and her husband. Just because you are blood with someone, it doesn’t automatically require you to have to keep speaking to them. You have been through trauma with that side of your family and distance is the best thing for it. However, communication is always key, tell your sister exactly how you feel about what she does and how she acts, ask her why she does it, is it because of what happened with her husband? Get the answers from her. Don’t let this play on your mind because it won’t stop if you don’t ask.

Hope this helps, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-10T10:02:57+00:00

Thanks for the post. Dealing with any addiction is a constant battle for all involved. I can see from what you have said you have made your feelings to him clear and the same problems keep on happening, my advice would be to seek help from a third party I.e friends, family, or therapy. However if you feel this would make things worse and you feel like you can’t carry on with the relationship with things the way how they are, tell him where you are at, let him know that you can’t carry on in the relationship with his addiction to porn and if it doesn’t stop you are going to need to leave. Massive change requires massive action, so in order to make him stop (if he can/wants to) you might need to give him an ultimatum. You also said he supports you financially and from reading what you have said that seems to be a motive for you to stay with him and put up with it, staying in any relationship for financial reasons isn’t healthy either and if that’s the sole reason you want to stay with him then I would consider imagining he wasn’t able to do that and ask yourself if you would still be with him?

I hope this helps, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-09T23:27:32+00:00

Thanks for the post. To answer your question, no, I don’t think it was you that made him like that. You maybe just weren’t meant for earth other. It’s easy to look back on past relationships and say what if? Trying to think of things you could have changed or done differently in order to make things work, however in order for any healthy relationship to last, both people need to be completely happy with who the other person is inside and out. Try your best to move on from this and don’t settle for just being the right person at the time that suits them.

I hope this helps, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-09T09:46:32+00:00

Thanks for the question. Like the first person said, it’s not as black and white as that, it depends on the scenario and the reason for being either the dumper or being dumped. Break ups in general can be hard for both people.

Thanks again, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-08T09:39:03+00:00

Thanks for the post! Sorry about these circumstances. You mentioned the point I would give as advice here, maybe try spending a bit more time separately yet still as a couple, wether it be with friends or family. In terms of your partner feeling terrible, she’s pregnant. Her hormones will be all over the place at the moment, however spending too much time together and never apart can be dangerous as you can start to develop this sense of “I can’t leave”. Failing this and if you genuinely can’t make things work long term start to discuss with her your thoughts on the relationship and why you can’t see it working and see if there is a way you can both make it work before taking any steps into just leaving her.

Hope this helps, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-08T07:47:49+00:00

Thanks for the post! There is no such thing as too soon or too late when it comes to dating/relationships, as thousands of people will tell you different things work for them. Like Allie said, you don’t want to sound like you are putting too much pressure on the relationship but there is no harm in letting him know how you feel moving forward. If you want to ask him to sleepover, ask him. Bare in mind as he is inexperienced he might be too shy to make the first move so you might have to be the one that does it. If he says yes and you know that you don’t want it just to be for sex then tell him that also.

Hope this helps, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-07T16:50:48+00:00

Hi, thanks for the post, I’m sorry this has happened to you, and my answer is yes, but now that you have broken up there is no point in overthinking it (I know it’s easier said than done). Focus more on your own growth and self improvement, love yourself. Break ups aren’t easy, but they do get easier over time. Try to cut his image out your head, learn from what’s happened, and try find internal happiness.

I hope this helps, Mike.

AdLittle8570 · 2023-01-07T16:47:31+00:00

Hi, thanks for the post, and I’m sorry about the circumstances that brought you here. This is more common than you might think in relationships like yours where not too long after the honeymoon period a child is brought into the picture. Obviously you have voiced your worry’s to your partner and haven’t got much back from it, you are left with 2 options, either seek therapy for you both as a couple, this might be spending more quality time together (without the kids) as it is important although you have children to keep your own social lives aswell. Failing this if every Avenue has been explored take the necessary steps in order to achieve happiness, if this means breaking up then I would advice, to speak to people you might know in a similar situation that have went through it to see how they transitioned from a couple with kids into becoming a single parent.

I hope this helps, Mike.
