[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ PP, what was the reason WHY he did it. Was it uncharacteristic, like a mid life crisis, or is this more of a case of a duplicitous guy living a double life? I think there can be a category of person who makes this mistake to fill some weird void or because of some stress/ mental health reason but are capable of regret, remorse and a desire to get back on the right track. I suppose only time can reveal his true colors. [/quote] Midlife crisis coupled with unaddressed/repressed childhood trauma (infidelity, domestic violence, alcoholism, abandonment/neglect). He compensated by being perfect and compartmentalizing so empathy/guilt isn’t felt. It’s shoved down. It wasn’t a marriage problem. It was a “him” problem which means I have less control. That’s why I’m hesitant. There’s nothing I can fix, as the therapist say he needs to continue to do the work. I worry about the future.[/quote] Sounds like bullshit excuses.[/quote]
