Anyone done this?

Anyone had a temporary split, where each of you slept with other people and then got back together?

I know a few who have and they seem genuinely happy.

But how do u get over the fact your partner gave intimacy (cuddles kisses etc) and sex to other women? (Whether it was meaningful or not)

Ex and I split due to distance and this happened. He's willing to move closer to me which would solve a lot of issues... says the women meant nothing to him and he just wants me...

AIBU it can't work now?

Was he a virgin when you got together? If not, he’d already given intimacy to other women when you met

Is "given intimacy" the new phrase? It sounds horrific.

Anyway, you can get over it or you can't. They're your feelings so it's really your choice if it's dealbreaker for you.

Me and my ex split a few months ago and I would give almost anything for us to get back together but if I thought he was with another woman in that time I would walk away and never think of him again.

Surely he had had sex with other people before you, so it’s no different?

I suppose it's just because he's had them AFTER me, makes me feel like nothing we had was special. He told them the same crap he told me, did the same things etc
