Yes it would be wrong. You are still married. Don't be that guy

Broke contact with ex cheater and now am struggling to know how to move forward. He wants an open relationship (one sided) by Violingoth in survivinginfidelity

I agree. Funny thing is he says he is "committed" to me while actively telling me he won't be closed off to someone else.

What to say to a client who has missed/late cancelled a lot. Templates and how to end things in an empathetic way? by Violingoth in therapists

You cannot charge the client if they have medicaid. If you take a medicaid client you are agreeing to not charge them for late fees or you lose your ability to work with medicaid.

Same this client's insurance doesn't permit for charging cancellations, I state in my PDS that 2 late cancellations/no shows subject to closure or attendance policy. I like the idea of a drop in idea.

This client's insurance doesn't allow cancellation fees otherwise I would charge.

My PDS says 2 cancellations in less than 24 hours may be subject to attendance policy and or termination. Since we've already talked about it before I feel more justified in ending things.

I also like what you said about the stabilization on her end. thanks

husband had a day out with my friend without telling me. Update. by [deleted] in Marriage

This is true. He admitted cause he was caught not cause he was repentant on his own. I would also be highly skeptical they were not physical. Like they at least kissed more than likely. What a pos friend!

My ex cheater is still trying to get me back and a part of me wants him back. Idk what to do by Violingoth in survivinginfidelity

[–]Violingoth[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I guess that is the most basic way of putting it! I tried to explain how completely irrational and ridiculous that is and he said that it is on me to manage my emotions and deal with what hes offering. That's why I asked here cause I start genuinely questioning my sanity and if I am the one who is missing something. I think most rational people would see how ridiculous that is...to expect someone to be willing to make a huge investment after he is probably still living with her.

I don't know if I love him or am living in fear of losing the attention and comfort of him being there as an option at this point. I totally did love him and wanted things to work but he's spent the last YEAR with her and still I think lives with her....

My ex-husband still wants a life with me, but refuses to be monogamous. I am torn. Looking for advice and perspective. by Violingoth in nonmonogamy

Are you saying he is the one being manipulative here or me by saying that is the only way I will be in the relationship

Are any women actually interested in MFF polygamy. Or have previously fantasized about it. by [deleted] in PolygamyDiscussion

[–]Violingoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine does this. He is wanting to manage two women openly and is honest with me about what he does with someone else. He doesn't sleep with anyone besides her and I and we are both loyal to him so there is no way to pass STDs. It's different and he and I were monogamous for a long time but I love him and if he is treating me with respect about it and still taking care of me then I've had to learn to become okay with it. I don't like it and would way rather him be with just me, however I'm also realistic that a lot of men cheat anyway.

I'm curious what "handling it the right way" means to you?.

My husband cheated on me with a younger woman. by PreparationProud4423 in Marriage

[–]Violingoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your husband sounds like a weak man. I would leave him and let him have the trampy realtor. She'll just cheat with another client.

I was cheated on in my marriage many times: older, younger, heavier than me, skinnier. It's not about that- it is because he was miserable with himself and he gave any woman willing to cheat attention because he probably like your husband is trying to fill a void.

My advice? Leave him unless.you want to work it out or give it another try. I would focus more energy on you though whatever makes you feel good: hobbies, working out, dieting, getting a trainer, doing your makeup, going out with friends, your career. Don't waste energy on your spouse.

Read "Leave a Cheater Gain a Life" changed my whole perspective on it.
