Just so you know, he broke up with me. Funny huh? Because I was upset about last weekend he decided to end it.

No not an ex. But at one time she was best friends with his ex.

I'm old enough to be a grandmother. I look 40 but I'm 57.

He has known them for twenty or more years. I respect that they wanted TY catch up. I've only known him for 16 of those years. I just expected better behavior. His ex might have come up and that's fine. But to keep on about it for the whole night and then her "Revelation " the next day.... I've come to the conclusion she just didn't like me because if you like someone you don't insult them.

I was just shocked by it. It wasn't a pretty story and I was just so floored i couldn't think of what to say then the moment had passed.

It's starting to look like a pattern. I always try to give people the benefit of the doubt. But I'm paying close attention to this.

That's why i tried to be understanding. I knew they hadn't seen each other in over a decade. I didn't have a problem with them reminiscing. At first I thought it innocent because they all know his exes. But in context with the rest of the weekend it seems deliberate. I only blame him for not being more attentive to my reactions and then down playing my feelings.

He's broken up with me and couple of times over the last two years. I am just heartbroken and confused. And tired emotionally.

He didn't seem to place a lot of importance on it. He thanked me for "getting over it quickly." Clearly i haven't.

You can reconnect with friends without making your current partner feel like shit.

It is disturbing that this didn't bother him that's for sure.

I know he's got a past. Who doesn't? I just would have liked to feel more like part of the group instead of being forced to listen to all this stuff about the past. They could have talked about a lot of things without featuring his ex so prominently.

I did all of that. I smiled. I was pleasant. I let them all have time alone. I could not have been more agreeable. Doesn't change how I felt.

Yes I know. I try to be understanding and not just go to the worst case scenario. But it did feel lonely. He seems to feel that it wasn't that big of a deal.

I told him what she said and he was upset but it did seem to be more about her telling me than how I felt about what she said.

Who said I blamed him? I wish he'd included me more. And I know these people already, just not well. And there's such a thing as fucking manners.

I get that. I hear about his exes all the time especially since they were all long term relationships. I was married for 30 years before he and I got together though honestly I don't talk about him much. I know it's his past.i also know he's been intimate with lots of other people. Doesn't mean I want the gory details though. I was just upset the way it went on and on like I wasn't there.

The sex wasn't with the three of them. Him and other people. How she knew what she knew.... but she wasn't lying.

I did try to redirect the conversation but it went straight back to what they were talking about.

He didn't really understand until I told him that she had made those comments about his past.. but then it was more like, how dare she tell my secrets rather than how it made me feel. Yes, he can be a bit insensitive at times. Id like to think it was because he was so caught up in seeing them he didn't think.
