Re: new relationships

I would tell him to choose between you as you cannot go on like this and definitely don't wait in his flat. Why should you be a doormat ?

I'm off men anyway and more than happy on my own but I wouldn't be treated like that.

Re: new relationships

I tend to agree generally with what others have said, but particularly with Mollie and BowieEyes. Also if the relationship he now has with his ex wife is platonic then why shouldn't you and her new partner be involved in the meetings. I can understand that he may still feel a bit guilty and feels that he has a responsibility to her, but she has another partner now and he is not being fair to this man or to you. It seems that he doesn't want to part with his past life and also that he is not sure about his feelings towards you either. I think I would give this next meeting at his place a miss if he is seeing his ex wife beforehand. I definitely wouldn't hang around at his place waiting for him. Keep him at arms length - it is early in your relationship and he should come to you if he wants a worthwhile relationship with you - it is too one-sided otherwise. You both need to have a frank talk about the future. He is hedging his bets IMO - he is like a lot of men - they often do want to have their cake and eat it and I think you should tell yourself that your needs are important in this and you deserve better. Best wishes.

Re: new relationships

I think you already know what you should do Jean otherwise you wouldn't need to be asking the question, but if you really needed corroboration from us then it looks like you've got it.....

Re: new relationships

I would not waste my time on a man who is splitting his time between two women.

By his own admittance he cheated on his wife with a younger woman. I wonder how many times he did that and his wife didn't find out. I don't think that kind of man can be trusted.

To be honest. I would run a mile.

Re: new relationships

I couldn't put up with a complicated relationship so I'm afraid I would close the book on him too...

Re: new relationships

Hey June. Excuse my bluntness but that's who I am. Sounds to me a manipulative situation. Kind of like high school. His story doesn't add up and drama is about to commence. Move on and hold your head up high. IMO

Re: new relationships

Generally agree with what has already been said, and I think Aerolor put it well. Sorry, but I think you deserve more than this.

Re: new relationships

Don't be a door mat for him, ditch him quick. No man treats someone he cares for in such a fashion.
