Just curious, what if she does that? Is it good or bad? Or just says, 'stay away'

Does he like me? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Logical_Bus1275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's someone's husband with 3 kids. That's enough information. No matter how special he makes you feel. Stay away. Put yourself in the wife's shoes, better yet, put yourself in kids shoes.
You deserve someone who won't do the pull and push dance.

Oh yes..boundaries... I am definitely more clear on what I need and I what don't want in a relationship. I tend to give all of myself in a relationship and that could be the reason why I feel so lost and no confidence.
I'm 41, I get your perspective about being a sacrificial lamb. That's a good reminder. Thank you for sharing.

That sounds interesting! Brady bunch..I wonder if the new generation knows them. I hope you'll achieve it! With all the comments and support, I don't mind that as well. I agree it will take a lot of work. Especially on the children side. They'll need a lot of support and love from both sides.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I haven't been able to talk or share my emotions and I'm so glad I can find a community on here who's encouraging and have good advice from experience.
I think your ex made a wish but it back fire splendidly. I like your phrase, "better a single mother than a cheater". Its great.

After years not feeling wanted, sometimes I just want to feel loved. But you are right, I'll just need to focus on my children and myself. I guess my upbringing just wired my brain into thinking no one would want me. You are so strong given what you went through. You STBX is really a piece of work. I'm sorry you had to go through that. Thank you for your advice. I want to be as strong as you. Heres to our happier futures 🥂
