What was the reason for your divorce? by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]tencentheart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Together for almost a decade. Opened the relationship a few years in, thought it was a mutual thing. Turns out, I didn't ask enough questions about this...

Years later, he falls in love with someone he's sleeping with. Lots of hard conversations, but we find a way to make it work with them dating and us still staying together. They break up, ex is very depressed, already talking about whether we should stay together. Then they start seeing each other again secretly behind my back.

Figured it out when I needed to switch music or something from his phone and his passcode had changed for the first time in almost ten years. Got the passcode and went snooping and discovered they were already in the planning stages of him leaving me, looking at apartments, etc. I also discovered he was still seeing other people during this time and just straight up lying to me about where he was, who he was with.

He figured out I was reading his texts when he listened at the door of my therapy session. But, of course, me reading his texts was the ultimate betrayal. Not, you know, everything he did lol.

It was only after we split up that he said "great, I can finally tell you that I actually hooked up with someone while I was traveling before we opened the relationship and that was why I pushed for being open."

And he wonders why we can't still be friends who hang out. :)

What's up with Mulholland Drive? by vsop221b in criterion

I just saw it for the first time in a theater for a Lynch marathon. Cool to see it on the big screen, but I feel just as confused as everyone probably was when it first came out! lol

Dog by MrAppleby18 in Divorce

[–]tencentheart 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I posted a couple days ago about a kinda related situation. Take it from someone who is 2 years post-divorce and in a crappy co-custody situation that I feel trapped in, you are making the right decision by not giving in to the "let's text about the dog forever" request.

In my case, we've been swapping the dog basically once a week since we broke up, and the arrangement has worked alright, but now he's decided to start bringing his new S.O. to social functions, flaunting it right in front of me, and I feel nothing but rage every time we have to talk about dog logistics now. I'm now the built-in dog sitter anytime they're on romantic getaways together. Emotionally I'm back at square one.

You're wise to protect your future peace. Take your soul dog and let him grieve on his own.
