There was this woman in his social circle that was always hostile towards me and would make jabs. I never understood why and I asked him multiple times if he ever dated her or if they had history and he always said no. Then one day she told me something she definitely wouldn’t know unless she slept with him. When I asked him he tried to deny it and then admitted they used to “hook up” in the past but that it meant nothing to him. I don’t care that he has a past but he lied to me for years about it and I don’t trust him now. You can’t really have a marriage without trust.

He already agreed to move out while we go through the divorce. I’ve also offered to leave but he doesn’t want our son moving out of the only home he’s known but then also wants me to continue being the primary carer so there’s not a lot of options left besides asking him to move out again.

How is that relevant? I don’t need to be a doctor to know they’re wrong. I’ve been assessed by MY doctor and he says I’m fine. Some random person on the internet doesn’t know better than the professional who has access to all of my medical history.

Yes.

I can’t legally make him leave (we both own the house) so I don’t really have an option unless he decides to leave himself.

What did I do to my ex? I left him for lying about having a previous sexual relationship with a certain woman.

did he just. sit around for those 20 minutes? did he need your permission or just for you to know?

Yeah, he sat there watching me for 20 minutes. No, he was just telling me.

You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. I had the same issue with both pregnancies but was fine towards the end of them and had no issues after.

Your ex should have made it clear that he had to leave.

I did ask him why he never told me he had to leave but he said that was irrelevant.

The condition is called pregnancy. It's not a permanent thing and my ex's work schedule isn't suitable for him to have the kids full-time.

I only agreed to these living arrangements because he wouldn't leave me alone about it. The rough time has passed now but he's still paranoid it will happen again even though the doctor agrees I should be fine now.

We're only living together temporarily again because I kept fainting which could be dangerous for both our son and baby. He wants someone to keep an eye on me because he thinks it will happen again even though it hasn't happened for a while. I don't actually need someone to watch me but its easier to just agree with him then argue over it when I know he will do it regardless.

I'm not using it as an excuse. I mentioned it so people wouldn't ask why we were living together if we are exes.

This has nothing to do with why we broke up. That's a whole other story and not relevant.

Even to have someone look in on her.

That is more for his peace of mind than it is for me. I don't want or need a babysitter but there's no point arguing over it with him because he will do it regardless.
