[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My Ex met his new wife online.  They met and moved in together within a year.  Got married one year later.  She does not know about his diagnosed sex addiction nor his bipolar depression (He did tell her he has depression, just not the bipolar kind).

She married him without ever meeting his ex-wife (me) and having only met his kids about a half dozen times in a year and a half.  I have full custody, and I'm sure that he told her some story about how I hate him and have poisoned the kids against him, even though he spends a lot of time at our house, and we have a pleasant relationship.  I'm not even sure she knows how much time he still spends at my house with the kids.

I know my exDH was online with various dating profiles while we were together.  I have seen the emails and contacts he had with these women and the tremendous lies they believed.  I would never date online for this reason.  Be careful who you meet online and make sure you spend a very long time getting to know them before you get attached.

I'm sure there are lots of good people who date online.  But, there are also a lot of people with deep pathologies.  [/quote]

Sure, but there are plenty of people with "deep pathologies," as you put who you could meet in any setting -- bar, activity, friends.  You seem to be implying that you are more likely to find someone with issues online than through other means, I am just don't know that is true.  MAYBE, if you meet a good friend of a friend, they are less likely to have issues, but even then, plenty of people have issues that would show up in a serious relationship that wouldn't show up in a friendship.[/quote]
