share this and get opinions.

I dated a guy for two years. When we first met we we just friends. He had seperated from his wife, who had tried to commit suicide, and after awhile our friendship turned into more.

We broke up in March. I realize know that the relationship was toxic but it still hurts and then this morning I find out that he has been dating a 23 y.o. I guess I'm stunned. Maybe I shouldn't be and I can look back and say thank god he's gone. So why does this hurt?

Thank you. I'm still a little confused as to why I feel any pain, fully knowing that this guy is an idiot.

That's why they call it "Falling"

Which poses a question, do we ever really know the people that we are with? and he did not leave me for the 23 y.o.

Awww, that stinks. flowerforyou

It hurts more because you feel stupid, and believed he was sincere. It is not your fault. You were hopeful and genuine.

Forgive yourself. The pain will ease a lot once you do that.

I can't generalize, but my ex was not who I thought he was. We were married for 20 years. On the bright side, it was easier to let go, since I had no idea who the person was I divorced. Not the guy I married, for sure....glasses
Sometimes it helps to remember what is better in your life now, without him. Don't forget the little things on that list ie toiletseat's down, no whiskers in the sink etc :wink:

Maybe you're not mourning him so much as the dreams of what could have been had things been different. flowerforyou
