I'm surprised how many dumb married guys there are that don't think their AP would do that. One of my friends started getting hang up calls. That was the APs way to let her know. Sure enough she followed up closely.
I admit that after I stopped sleeping with my AP but we kept in touch and he kept coming on to me, while telling his wife it was long over and no contact, it was tempting to let her know. But it seemed too trashy and attention-seeking. It’s between them. It wouldn’t serve me anyway. It would just make her decision to stay harder for her, and if she left him over it he would just be angry at me.
That’s the part you thought was trashy and attention-seeking?
Sigh!
Exactly. The classier thing would have been to apologize to his wife and never contact that loser again.
At least the wife could get tested for STDs etc. Who knows who else he was sleeping with pp!
Fair point, when you don’t know the whole situation. I personally think apologizing to the wife is silly, hurtful and also attention seeking; how could I honestly apologize to her for some thing I did earnestly at the time? It’s meaningless. She knows me and knows what the situation was and why it happened. It’s enough that I resisted his ongoing repeated overtures. They can sort themselves out. STDs were not a factor in this situation. None of us has been with anybody else.
Someone that would lie and cheat on his family is someone you can't trust. You didn't know him, and he likely lied to you as well. Again you don't know if he was sleeping with anyone else, or what. There's no excuse for "why" it happened. A married person is off limits period. Their problems are their business alone, and if you heard it all through him well then again he's cheater and a liar. What he says holds no weight. Hopefully, you never go down that road again and find a nice man.
This may seem hard for you to believe, internet stranger who thinks she knows more about my life and his than we do, but I do know him, and what he was doing, and has done since. Your assumption that everyone who cheats is promiscuous trailer trash with an IQ of 70 and no insight is not correct.
No I don't think it says anything about IQ. It does say you had serious problems to lower yourself to get into that type of situation.
If you were interested romantically you could have easily told him to contact you if he's ever single. I'm thinking probably his wife truly knows him and what he is. If you know what he's done since it tells me you need to pull the plug on that loser.
Thanks Einstein. Again you don’t know the situation and mental space I was in at the time, how or why it happened, or the nature of the relationship then or since. Your sanctimonious condescension was not requested.
When you post your dirty laundry on a public message board visited by thousands of people per day, they may respond as they see fit, whether or not you “request” their input. WTH do you think you are?
And I am allowed to respond to that person as I see fit, based on the facts and reality that I know and they don’t. I think I am the authority on my life and relationships and a better judge and reporter of both than the responder who seems herself omniscient. I know that doesn’t fit your narrative and apparently that really irks you.
True, but you're not seeing all your posts are about "you", what you were "feeling". Or going through etc. Ok we all go through things, but you still don't take any accountability of your part in getting involved in someone's marriage. It's simply wrong, and what you are feeling, or going through isn't an excuse. That's the entire point. When you state "the nature of the relationship then or since" it still says your judgement is very poor because you are apparently still in contact with this horrible man. No one is acting superior, but trying to get you to understand you're engaging in self defeating behavior in which you have all the control. I would say cut all contact with him, block him, and put him in the recycle bin where he belongs.
I truly hope you are able to do that.
