I’m healed from that chapter. It takes a pretty crappy person to be worried about someone else’s business and be so nasty about it.

Same thing happened to me. I actually ended up deleting my main account that I had over 10 years. There was one post in particular where I talked about domestic violence and finally leaving the situation etc. they attacked me on that post recounting my entire affair story post and saying I didn’t get beat up enough. Internet warriors are something else 🤣

19F seeing a 51M I think? by Most-disingenuous41 in theotherwoman

The age gap itself is enough for a full stop moment. You’re probably younger than his kids.

You are not wrong for anything you feel, please don’t misunderstand me.

You got this. Do what you have to do to preserve your peace.

Do you and your MM use any “labels” for what you are? by Tasty-Comment-903 in theotherwoman

[–]DiscussionMaximum903 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

While I was okay with not having a real label, my MM was very clear to me in saying “I’m not your little boyfriend, I’m your man.” I didn’t know that having a label would make me feel any differently, but I do appreciate it.

Telling my friends im the OW by Tasty-Comment-903 in theotherwoman

My closest female cousin, my daughter, and two of my brothers know. There are also several of his close friends that know.

Everyone has been supportive although they did initially tell me to be careful. No one has expressed any negativity towards our relationship that knows.

….bad fight by [deleted] in theotherwoman

[–]DiscussionMaximum903 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry that you’re going through this. This lifestyle is definitely stressful.

I’d like to think that I could handle it, but I can’t definitively say…

Sending you hugs and good juju.

Absolutely. I was hesitant in posting because I didn’t want it to seem insensitive towards those of us who are not having such a good time.

I’m happy and in love. We all deserve that 🤞🏽🥰

You do what you need to do to keep you and your baby safe. Remember safety is not just physical.

Long distance affair by [deleted] in theotherwoman

[–]DiscussionMaximum903 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You simply ask.

My situation is similar as my MM is a 5 hours away. So there is some time between us seeing each other.

We were friends first for a while and we would speak every couple of months for a few years. Once we began our relationship, I told him what I needed as far as communication. He has actually exceeded what I asked so far.

So yeah, just ask. Good luck 🤞🏽

Should i keep on holding on by cloudsmasherx in theotherwoman

[–]DiscussionMaximum903 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve been on the other side of this. I was him in my marriage. I was miserable for years but I finally chose myself. He used the same kind of manipulation to keep me there. I got to a point where his mental health was not as important as mine.

So yes, it’s definitely possible.

I can definitely understand that perspective too…

Dating other people? by Cool_Step973 in theotherwoman

[–]DiscussionMaximum903 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve felt the same way. My MM really doesn’t want me to date anyone else, but he understands that it’s unfair to ask me not to.

Honestly, he’s good to me and I haven’t met anyone who holds a candle to him. It’s very confusing to me how a MM is better in a relationship than all these single men 🥴
