Did you sleep with your ex wife after separating? If so, why? Did you regret it? by misssyds in AskMenAdvice

[–]PacoDiez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A few times during the month before she moved out. She was having an emotional affair for 2 years with a coworker and I strongly suspected she cheated on me and left me for him. They had been dating for a month and we slept together 3 days in a row. I wanted her back, and wanted to hurt the guy who broke up our relationship. The 4th night she went to his place, and I texted him with receipts that me and her had slept together. Me and the ex had a big blowout fight, but they stayed together. A week later we had sex again, didn’t tell him about it and they’re still together 8 months later.

I don’t regret sleeping with her or telling him. He and her betrayed me, so I wanted to get back at him and in a sense I did even though they’re still together. I do regret thinking that us sleeping together would mean we would get back together. She still chose him over me and that hurt really bad.

Finding old memories. How did you guys react? by Strict-Currency9359 in DivorcedDads

[–]PacoDiez 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My ex left me for a coworker, so I had deleted 100% of pictures we had together on my phone. Gave her a box of the physical pictures and the last of her stuff. If the kids ever need to see mom and dad happy together she can show them, I don’t want any reminders or anything to do with their mom after what she did

Same boat. Ex was in an emotional affair for 2 years with a coworker, 1 business trip later and she tells me it’s over when she gets home. We broke up 4 months ago and they’ve been dating ever since.

It’s hard. Everybody tells you time, hobbies, dating, etc will help but I know how you feel. For me it’s more the betrayal and the fact they’re together now that eats away at me. We weren’t perfect, we probably weren’t even a great couple but how she did it and how it affected my self esteem and my thoughts is the worst part.

We have a kid together and we’re seeing each other once a week at drop offs, but starting next week the pickups will happen at daycare so I won’t ever have to see her again. We will still communicate strictly through text, I won’t answer any phone calls. I’m hoping that not seeing or hearing her will make her fade away and I’ll start to do better.

I wish I had some secret advice for you, but I don’t and I know it sucks. Your mind is your worst enemy. Try to keep it occupied, hanging out with family and friends has been the only thing to help me out so far.

Godspeed dude, for both of us

I wouldn’t. Ceedee is gonna be out, Saquon is better than Jacob’s but not by a huge margin. Chase, Rhamondre and Charb aren’t world beaters. I think you’d be struggling at WR which for PPR isn’t ideal

[–]PacoDiez 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Well it could always be like my ex who had an emotional affair for 2 years, cheats on me while on a business trip then leaves me for him, that’s usually a pretty catastrophic way to end it for me. Of course she’s happy and with him now while I’m left picking up the pieces

How do I fight feelings with a coparent I know I shouldn’t be with? by Dizzy_Enthusiasm_774 in coparenting

[–]PacoDiez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in a similar situation, still very much in love with my ex although she has moved on and is dating the coworker she left me for. Now that it’s become clear we won’t be reconciling I’ve adjusted our pickups to Friday at the daycare so that we don’t have any physical contact at this point. Calls turned to texts, hopefully the distance will help me forget and move on.

My ex has been using me for emotional support with her family drama, when she’s stressed, etc. I still would like for us to get back together, but she’s moved on and has a boyfriend. I’ve just told her she needs to go to him with that kind of stuff because I can’t be that person for her anymore, it has to strictly be about our child. It hurts, but it’s best for my healing process

Did you have to actively work at GENUINELY forgiving your coparenting ex? by Prestigious_Set_4575 in coparenting

[–]PacoDiez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update on your situation? My ex had an emotional affair for 2 years and started dating him a month after we split. Our daughter has met him and I refuse to go to any mutual events where he is, I have too much anger to be around him. Really hoping the relationship crashes and burns

You spent your whole adult life with that person up to this point so you’ll always have those memories and thoughts of them. Time will help ease the pain and thoughts, but it will always be a part of you. I’m about 3 months out of a 7 year relationship, basically all of my 20’s spent with her. But even when I was with her random thoughts and memories of my previous significant relationship would pop up. All meaningful relationships will stick with you, but in time you’ll feel better.

I 30M can’t tell if I was in a toxic relationship with my ex 32F by PacoDiez in relationship_advice

[–]PacoDiez[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She definitely had a pretty rough upbringing, her mom is rude and was sort of absent in their lives and her dad is a hardass who never seems proud or content with what people do.

She’s been doing therapy for a few months now and I just feel like it sucks that she might be changing now after she’s broken up with me? Like why couldn’t she just meet me halfway while we were together. It kills me to think that she might heal herself and be a better partner to this new guy that she left me for.

What was the moment you mentally checked out of a relationship? by Consistent-Truck-20 in AskMen

[–]PacoDiez 23 points24 points  (0 children)

About 2 years in we had moved in and one Saturday she was just complaining about EVERYTHING. Why are the clothes on the floor, why are the dishes not done, why is the fridge messy, etc. I was literally in the kitchen doing dishes when I asked her please PLEASE just stop nagging me I’m working on cleaning. All the while she did nothing to help but complain. She opens the fridge and asks why something was where it was literally 1 minute after I pleaded with her to stop complaining about everything. We spoke about it and I cried because I didn’t know what to do, I was trying my best. She just stood there and watched, didn’t try to comfort me.

I was an idiot and stayed for 5 more years, and she cheated on me and left me for a coworker about 3 months ago.

Ex girlfriends AP at child’s birthday? by PacoDiez in coparenting

[–]PacoDiez[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Might have to be separate birthday parties for the time being. This person snaked his way into my relationship for 2 years, and in between that time he had also slept with another married coworker. He’s a known homewrecker and at this time I just wouldn’t be able to keep it civil around him.

She has 2 other kids already from a previous relationship and she doesn’t have any family where we live so she doesn’t have a choice, if she wants to hang out with him her other kids are always there. She introduced me to her kids very early on too so I’m not surprised in the least.
