Being the other women, what a shit show
Relationship Stress / by faithfulBeach3776

...See more Hi everyone, I don't even know where to begin. I have gotten myself in a mess and I can't seem to get out. I'll try to make it short & sweet. 🥺 After I separated from my ex husband of 14 years I met this oh so charming man who was in my city working. He lived 8.5 hours from me. I fell head over heels for him. He was everything I ever wanted (so I thought). He was amazing, I guess you could say he loved bombed me. Big time. After working months in my city he goes back to his hometown.. I notice and I have this feeling something is off, especially when we are video chatting he looks nervous. I thought maybe I'm just in my head and it's nothing. My intuition was right. A woman had messaged me a few days after. Asking me why I'm talking to her "husband" (they aren't married) I don't reply, instead I confront him. He told me not to respond and it's nothing. His famous words it's nothing. Fast-forward to now, 4 years later. We are still together. Throughout the years we spend most of our time meeting in hotels and sometimes he comes here to my house. It just depends on where he's working. I'll go there to visit etc. I'm at the point or I have been for a while. I just want out. I have tried to leave a few times. He always manipulates me back in. One time I ended it he drove all those hours here and was waiting at my work and begged me to stay. Second time- same thing and chased me throughout my city, he was crying begging me not to leave. This guy is very controlling, wants to be on the phone 24/7, has to know everything I am doing, does not want me communicating with my kids father or friends. He has isolated me and he doesn't even fuckin live in the same state!! I have lost my job because of him . The list goes on. Like what the fuck am I doing.. I feel like when I leave him... Mv kids and i will have to go out of state.. I will have to do this on my own. I hope you can make sense of all of this. I just need someone to talk to you know. Or advice. please be kind.❤️
