I have nc for this....
I have a new partner. Well sort of. It's a slow moving maybe relationship - in a good way.
We are both divorced. I asked him directly the other day why his marriage broke down. He hasn't been cagey or evasive about it in the past I just thought it better to wait a while before I asked him outright just out of courtesy I suppose.
So I asked him and he told me it was due to an emotional affair. He talked (I think) very honestly about it and didn't try and blame it on exw or anything. He only said that he didn't think he could have stopped it. I don't think he even put any kind of spin on it really.
I am quite stunned. I really don't know what to think. I appreciate he told me so truthfully but I feel a bit weird about it. I was quite positive about this man before that and we get on so well and have so much in common - culturally and lifestyle wise. He's been great really. It was so not the story I was expecting!
What do mn think?
