My ex and I broke up 6-7 months ago because of my financial instability. I ran a small word of mouth home theater company that i had started a year prior and i worked about 10 days out of a month. I own my own house pay all my bills with the income from it so I did pretty good but i was barely getting by. I would always tell her when I was stressing out a well, which I learned I should have never told her about. However I am very honest and thats just how I am. I told her everything.
Our relationship started to go downhill because of my HINDSIGHT and what she was really telling me(if you want to be with me get my **** together). I was trying my best to get more business but with word of mouth its up to the clients. My ex started getting strange and kept asking for a break and wasnt returning my calls was out with her "cousins" and I got suspicious and ended up catching her through text messages one night when she came home from hanging out with some guy. I scared the out of her but did not touch her. I walked out and left. Once I left I realized why it came to this(HINDSIGHT). So i kept trying to get her back 4 letters, sent flowers 3 times. she would hang up on me everytime I called. after about 4-5 months of crying everynight and praying. sending letters and flowers I decided to not call her anymore. then on feb 3rd after about a month and a half of NC I got a blocked call and heard her daughter in the background. I did not call back.
I had started looking for work in NYC because my company had no business coming in and I was running out of money. I started looking for a job a week after our break up. A month later I landed an amazing job with a home theater company and I started at 82k right off the bat. pretty amazing considering the financial state of the u.s. and everyone else losing their jobs. Here I am getting a job during it. I had been doing great at my new job but the stress and anxiety of not being with her was affecting my work.
on feb 15th I went to her house and tried to get her back after a month and a half of strict NC(no calling). It took a lot of strength for me to go to her hosue but the love I have for her made me go through with it. She let me in and we had talked a bit. We had sex the night I came over and the next day went out for breakfast with the kids(the day after V day is when i went I couldnt take it anymore). after breakfast back at her house I had talked to her about the things I have accomplished during our break up and that I realized all the things I took for granted and did not do. I had told her I would never be like that again.
She then told me how there was nothing between us and told me how she found true love with this married guy which she had left me for 2 years prior and then left him and got back with me because he had just had a kid with his wife. then after our break up she tried to hang out with this other guy and it didnt work out so she went back tot he married guy. on 2 separate occasions she has told me she knows what she wants and thats it. she thinks the married guy is going to leave his wife in the future and they will live happily ever after. when we were together she had mentioned how when they were together everything was so perfect and looking back I see how she never really got over him when she was with me. BUT how could it be perfect when this guy has never met her kids and only sees her at night or when HE calls. It just makes me so concerend about her feelings. She knows not what she does. this guy has written letters that are shallow and it seems to fit the bill for my ex and she gobbles it up. I had stumbled upon a letter she had written and don't know if it was to me or him. no names were mentioned. the letter that she wrote was pretty much I love you i love you I love you baby. you are my air that i breath etc.. and it was dated oct 26th a day I had sent flowers to her. the only thing the letter mentions is how she keeps looking at something. it oculd possibly be the flowers?
I had brought up the married guy to her 2 different times which I know was wrong but it really bothered me. She had told me how his wife tricked him into getting her pregnant and how he says shes a total and he cant stand her ETC PURE BS I had asked her if she knew the wife if she ever met her to make her own assumption of her. I also had said to her why hasnt he divorced her if he loves my ex so much.
I spent a month with her when I came back into her life and did all the things I never did to show her I knew what it took to be that man for her. We only had sex twice during that month and fooled around a couple times. I helped her kids with home work I got them ready for bed and read them bedtime stories when she was out going to her shrink(to help her with communication and parent issues). we would both drive to her daughters school to pick her up at the end of the day. I even picked up her daughter by myself one day. I installed 5 different lights in her house that just had a wired ight hanging there since her and her ex were together and after the divorce(something I should have done while we were together). I have proven that I would not take her for granted anymore.
She was very abusive during this month and criticized me for every little thing(something I use to do while we were together) and had stopped doing because I realized I was wrong. I felt i deserved it a little but after 2 weeks of it I would not take it anymore and we would become argumentative over it. however she kept saying how I would start it but in fact she was. she would start yelling and I would be stil talking but she would say I started yelling.
I noticed when I was over for the month in the begining that her kids were unruly, talked back and did not listen to her. that was something I dealt with when I first met her kids and overtime they settled down, listened and behaved much better. They were far worse when I first came back for that month. after a week they had settled down tremendously becasue I suppose they knew I would not take it.
my ex had also fallen plague to gastrointestinal disorder(from stress and anxiety) as well as grinding her teeth at night(another stress and anxiety issue). while I was sleeping over there I noticed after the first week her grinding of her teeth lessened a lot.
there were a couple situations that I thought were strange. she had acted like no one knew I was around. I was parkng my truck in front of her house which no one in the family knew the truck cuz i just got it. then one day we were driving and her brother was in his truck driving and she had asked me to duck down like he didnt know I was hanging with her. Then she had said can I park my truck down the block. she said because everyone knows it. I had said how do they know and she was like don't worry about it.?? then another time I was picking her up to go out for the night and she had started to tell me that I couldnt sleep over anymore because she is tired of all the questions. Her and I both had not slept together except for the two times but no one believed we were just friends. I suppose they all thoguht we were sleeping together all the time. so she had said how she is tired of the hundreds of questions form her family.(obviously they were hoping we would get back together becasue they all loved me and so did I love them. I even saw her uncle one day and he was very happy to see me and was like GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN!!!! SO im confused about that because she had told me that know one knew but meanwhile everyone did know.
Anyway I suppose after giving you the background on this situation. Im Lost at what to do. The only thing I have said to her about the married guy is that its disgusting and that your going to have to find out for yourself how i goes because anything I say she will disregard.
I have read so many married guy stories from here and over the net and I am seriously hurting to think the love of my life is in this enchatned BS situation and I dont want her to get hurt and realize that hes just playing her.
my ex went from trying to get me to marry her and the night i caught her cheating her telling me with tons of sadness "I would be a good wife to you".
to telling me how she never wanted to marry me and never was in love with me she loves me but shes notin love and she loves the married guy and its true love.
I guess the jist is I love her with all my heart and would do anything for her I would die for her. This whole married guy thing has made me so angry at the married guy for feeding her BS Its killing me inside to think she is being played by a married guy for sex and here I am trying to get back with her so I can marry her.
sorry for the long post I really dont know what to do.
I had thoguht about sending an anonymous email to her with all the stories i had copied and pasted about married mens BS I think she will know its form me though. I know I cant tell her about the married guy BS lies because she wont believe it. and she has told no one about it. SHe has said she told ehr shrink but I think thats a load of because any shrink would say hes lying.
any advice? thanks for reading
