[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You said you weren't serious with him so why are you giving this so much though?

It would not have worked out for you in the long run.

Cut your losses and move on.[/quote]

OP here...because it seemed like it could have potential to last a very long time. I want a long-term relationship. I just don't want to get married again. I do not think family ever needed to know. He said before he was not looking for marriage and kids. We seemed to be on the same page. This threw me. I would not have mentioned to family if marriage and kids were not in the future...I feel that this could have been the long-term relationship I wanted that did not have to result in marriage. I see no reason family needed to know unless marriage was discussed. It wasn't. [/quote]

How in the world did you think you were in it for the long haul with or without marriage without his family finding out?![/quote]

I thought he would tell me before telling his family and only if we had serious conversations. We were getting to a point it was beginning to feel like it could turn into a long term thing and earlier he had said he did not know if he still wanted to have children or even get married. We were in a good place. I thought if we were together for a year we might tell family. It was actually a total of 7 months before be broke up. He told them at the end of six months in November. He said he did not plan it but someone asked about his love life and he said it just came out because he was excited about me. I just thought we would discuss it before telling family after we discussed being long term or not. Part of me now thinks a friend he told earlier tipped his family off to ask about his love life and they were already ready to pounce but that is just a guess.[/quote]
