    Thank you for the update!
    I think I would feel the same way you do. I do like the fact that she is moving away. That should help some of your anxiety! Just hang in there. I know you said he is 34, sorry if you already said, but how old are you?
    Trust does take time and it is not an ideal situation that he has with the ex...but do have faith in him. It almost sounds like an amicable divorce. My ex and I get along fine and at first my new hubby was really uncomfortable with it (my ex and I have a daughter though so contact is kind of a must-dang it) but anyway....my new hubby was really nervous and thought I would want to get back together with my ex (this was when we were first dating). I had NO DESIRE to be with him ever again. I loved my new man and the thought of being intimate with my ex made me shiver (in a bad way) but I didn't want to be hateful towards him either. It is so much easier to be friendly with an ex if the split wasn't horrible. I guess if they were fighting all the time that might be cause to worry...ya know? Like they have some issues that still need resolving....by them "getting along" that tells me that they are both over each other and have respect for each other and probably wish each other the best in the future-WITHOUT each other. That is how my ex and I are. He has remarried, I remarried and I couldn't be happier for him and he feels the same. Our conversations are never heated. I hope that helps you a little. Oh, and just so you know....my hubby is totally secure with it now. He even thinks my ex is an ok guy...they can talk and joke around....it took a little while for my now hubby to see how in love I really am with him and NOT at all with my ex. My now hubby is 10 years younger than me too. He is really handsome and sexy to me and I let him know that all the time!

        There is nothing to be worried about. I am 39 and my hubby is 29! He has 2 YOUNG kids (8 and 5)-I have a 21-19 & 14 year old...plus my oldest has an almost 2 year old daughter! It keeps me young! Age is not a big deal at all! I still feel like I am in my 20's most of the time!
        Just wish my body still were! LOL!
        I really don't think you have anything to worry about. As long as he tells you what is going on, he isn't hiding anything. If he owns his own business he could easily have told you he was doing errands and not tell you about her. So, just keep loving him and trust in him. I do agree that men don't like it when their girl is insecure....it is always good to be aware, but not insecure....
        I am sure your man is very happy with you!

          You know what, Switzgirl?
          Perhaps I wasn't understanding you enough; and maybe not even open-minded enough.

          I just posted this to apologize to you in what you're going through.

          I hope all works out for you-- and just trust the new love in your life. Things will work out well for you.
