when in danger or in doubt, run in circles scream and shout!
Posted by anonymous at July 30, 2003 1:40 PM | TrackBackBroke up with the boyfriend of 4 years today because of an ongoing situation that I find unbearable. his ex returned last year and they just cannot seem to stay away from each other. Married 20 years, she left him 5 years ago for another man. Now suddenly, they have all sorts of healing to do, for the sake of their two grown children.
So, all their current togetherness is for "the children" and this includes taking her shopping, catching calls twice a day to give her advice, helping her figure out what to do next since she got fired from her job (and is currently out of boyfriends) Picking up articles, web sites and anything else he can find to "help her get her life together for the childrens sake" It is ALL for the children and they are in their twenties by the way.
Meanwhile, she tells me she has no interest in him (I asked) yet, I show up and there she is parked in his house, AGAIN and AGAIN and AGAIN. Just dropped by to pick some stuff up....
And I am the person who is "selfish" because I am screaming mad about the situation. After all a father should love the children's mother.... and he "loves her like a dear old friend" Pretty funny because he was crying on my shoulder the last three years about the various times and ways she cheated on him in the past.
Personally, I think they are in total denial about what is happening between them it and it is making me ill to watch it go down.
