The Other Woman

[Anonymous]

I have been in a FWB with an ex from April to August of this year on a regular basis.   I guess ex is the key word, I should never have been involved with him a 2nd time.  He assured me he was not dating anyone.  He always said he didn’t want to get remarried and I’m on the same page.  We are both 58.  Sex was incredible.  

I drove by his house after a couple weeks of him making excuses that he was busy.  I saw he had sold his house and did not even have the decency to tell me.  I texted him and asked if he had moved.  He responded that he quit his job, sold his house and moved to FL to help his son who lost his job.  I thought that was odd.  I knew he had previously been seeing a woman in Ga so I sent her a message on FB.  I then got a text from him (I know she wrote it) saying he wanted to tell me the truth that they had been on and off and he realized he wanted to marry her.  They are now married according to the pic on FB.  I feel so betrayed and lied to.  All he had to do was tell me the truth. I was upfront about not sleeping around as we did not use protection and he assured me he wasn’t sleeping around. I told him if he started seeing someone to let me know and we could end our hooking up.   Why tell me, he was getting sex from 2 women apparently.  I have caught him in numerous lies so I guess I shouldn’t be surprised.  His is a POS and dishonest.  I honestly think he wants someone to take care of him Financially and I AM NOT doing that. I wish I had never met him nor wasted my time on this man.
