Infidelity Support Group
Any relationship in which one partner engages willfully in sexual relations with another outside of the partnership is considered to have experienced infidelity. This breach of trust is often traumatizing for the faithful partner as well as the relationship, and support is often needed to heal emotionally and to decide whether or not the relationship should continue after...
Your situation? Have you considered looking in another place? Join some church groups. Get active there.
Your EX? You know, there is a long history there of legal problems, an age issue, all of that. For all of that, when you start dating someone, pay attention to what goes on in their lives and not what comes out of thier mouths. Anyone can SAY anything, but if thier lives don't SHOW the result of it, I choose to say, and have said, 'well, aren't they just trying to blow a bit of sunshine (bullshit) right up my ass...'
If thier lives seem like a wreck, it's because the man/woman is a wreck. If a man/woman has their crap together, thier lives will show it.
I met my Man online, on a dating site. Now, before you roll your eyes or anything, I have to say this, you can be PRETTY PICKY online. You can hit DELETE all the hell over the place. YOu can talk to someone for 5 minutes and HANG up the phone. You can IM with someone and say, 'whoa! never want to hear from that clown again!!!'
See my point? Make a commitment to yourself to NOT commit to anyone you meet and are dating for 6-8 months.
Sending you support, L~
Think your guy was a "family man"? Couldn't hare been much of one - he was that selfish to have an affair.
The OW is butt ugly too!!!!
Look for couples you admire and say to yourself... I want that!!! It will come to you ...it has for me!
Yes, hispanic men are "family" men... My H adores our sons, financially supports his mother, and would give his sisters the shirt off his back... but they are also taught at a young age that a mistress, or "Sancha", is not family... you can play as long as you come home to your family at night.
Unfortunately, I've discovered how common and accepted this is in his culture. His dad had a mistress, and my H and his sisters would even play with her children, and at night they all went home to Mama.
I told my H.... Unfortunately for you, you didn't marry a Puerto Rican... you married a white girl...
We're going through hell b/c of what he thought was acceptable as a child... that's why sometimes on this board I get really upset about what is allowed to happen in front of children. You just don't realize the damage that takes a lifetime to reverse...
