Yup. So true. I'm never going to understand it. But I don't need to. All I need to know is it hurts me and she won't stop it. She commits to but can't help herself. It's an addiction. He wants no life with her and she feels the same. So I just don't get it. But she obviously gets something out of it. Something so good that she will jeopardize our future. I guess some things are not meant to be understood

Bounce out.
These are also my thoughts. Except that this is the way people are. Monogamy is an illusion. Ever since humans have existed, they've probably been this way. You have to take it or leave it. You can't change it.
Some people get lucky and find a mate who is aberrant in behavior (in other words, faithful). You weren't lucky this time.

I guess your right Steve. I'm one of those people. I don't need more than one gal. Maybe this is the world we live in. I was going to marry this gal. Proposed and age accepted last year. Oh this is good. She put back on the engagement ring today a took a photo, but it's on the wrong hand! When I asked wtf she said we are not engaged but she was trying to show a move that way. ???? Whatever.

I see her as a f@@k buddy. Go to dinners. But nothing more. No sleep overs and no talk of a future. And I guess I need to stop saying I love you to her.

All very sad. But she won't change

Why you would even take her to dinner after finding out she and the ex were laughing at you behind your back ?
She must be getting more out of you than just sex...she has the supposed ex for that.
You might as well put a sign on your back that says Sucker.

I think the OP, his "girl," and her ex-husband need to go on the Jerry Springer show.

Haha. Jerry springer.

Not sure why she would start wearing the engagement ring on her right hand??! Wtf

But this is now just casual. I'm done talking about a future. Moving in together. Marriage. Etc.


People rarely change

How much did you pay for the ring?

Do you want it back?

It was not expensive. No I don't want it back. I just don't understand why out of nowhere she starts wearing it yesterday. And she came on to me that she horny. N

Probably trying to just sweep it all under carpet and get me to let it go. I pushed for apology and explanations on phone. She hung up and broke up. Typical. This woman would rather die than admit fault and face up

She has not replied. Only said that she wants me to come up with solutions. I put that right back on her and said that won't work. She has to decide what she will do.

One thing I know at 49 years old. I cannot change anyone but myself.
I had one of these women too and i can tell you it doesn't get any better. Cut all ties now. I know it is hard when you care about them, but it is clear there is a problem here and after all the time she has had and it is no better says it all.
My ex GF used to text, sext, inappropriate emails, pics with her ex BF the whole time we were together. I am sure she slept with him too when the time allowed. When asked about it she played it off as no big deal and we will always be friends and talk. Really? Never again.

Bears dad. Wow I'm not the only one. Did your gal ever try to stop. Or commit that she would? Mine knows it's wrong but just can't stop the activity. Did you ever figure out why she was doing it? You
