[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I could have written this thread 6 years ago, minus the secretary aspect. My ex introduced our two boys to his affair partner prior to our divorce, and he continued to see her after the divorce. However, they broke up shortly thereafter, as he got caught cheating--again, lol.

I know it's a hard pill to swallow but maintain your grace and class. Resist the urge to lash out. She likely feels just as uncomfortable, if not more so, and I am sure he does as well. I can almost 100 percent guarantee they won't last. [/quote]

Yup. There was a lot I could not control and it sucked but I was 100% in control of my own behavior and the goddamned hero of my own story: at once kind, decent, low-drama, and considerate; and also, protective of my boundaries and not a doormat. So I kept it neutral, perfunctory, and detached.

FWIW, I did not keep their secret from others -- everyone knew. Whenever I felt uncomfortable, I reminded myself that my own conduct was above reproach, while their discomfort in the community was 1000% warranted.

P.S. They broke up. He's alone and I take only just a little bit of pleasure in his misery. [/quote]
