Hi All
I'm a long time lurker here. Have been through all the ups and downs but never really had courage to post.
My relationship with my ExH broke down a year ago due to repeated Internet cheating - despite repeated promises he never stopped (he couldn't apparently - yeah right)
Anyway I'm on my own raising my 3 yr old. A few months ago I met a nice man. We get on well and he lives close by.
But . . .
He talks about his ex-wife a fair bit and it's so venomous. It's really off putting.He tells me all the details of their child custody battle and it's horrendous (plus a tad boring if I'm honest)
I'm a big girl and I know the men i date in my 30's are going to have pasts but it is the nasty way he speaks of her and her family that puts me off.
What is really going on for him?
he seems so gentle and kind until she comes up. I'm thinking I'm going to get rid.
I've tried to approach it with him and his response was very angry. I said "please don't get angry"
And he said "I don't get angry . . EVER". I think I touched a nerve.
Has anybody any experience with this? I'm not in physical relationship with him as I like to take things VERY slow on that front. Just kissing and stuff . . .
Thanks for allowing me to lurk for so long. I'm going to start giving something back now as I see all the people on here in pain over Internet cheating. I healed so much from reading the threads here over the past couple of years
