Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
About all you can do now is to move forward, and avoid situations like this in the future. Please, by all means, remove him and her from your life. If he cheated on his wife with you, then odds are strong that even if he married you, he would ultimately cheat on you.
Secure your financial identity. If that means closing all credit cards, then do so. If you have evidence that he cheated on any arrangments you made, consider taking him to court. If there are any outstanding loans that he is part of then move to close them and sell what ever is involved. For example, if you are making payments on a car he has possession of, move to collect it, return it, and close the loan.
I am so sorry for all your pain,
Gentle hugs
Not a good idea to court married people.
He played you but you let him. You are going to have to take the responsibility for your own downfall because con artists cannot operate without the consent of their victims, and it sounds like he and his wife have a game they play that works for them both quite well. You bought into the dream he was selling without stepping back and saying 'how is this possible? See, the wife is not retarded. And you were a fool to think she was. She's in on the game.
Now: go get yourself a new home and some new furniture. Chalk this up to experience and be glad you didn't have his child or you'd have to deal with him for the next 2o yrs.
My last boyfriend cost me $35,000. So I've just been stung myself, and all I can say is welcome to the fml club. Here we are, we totally understand. Have a drink on me.
