Husband moving on already

[CBradshaw]

After years of emotional abuse, I left my husband when it escalated and I had to call the police.
2 months on, and I am settled in a new home with my children.

Even though I won't go back, I still miss him (the good bits). I never wanted to leave, but I knew I had to. Is it normal to miss them?

And I've just found out he is seeing someone - I'm devastated. All my friends have said it is typical narcissistic behaviour, but the last thing on my mind is being with anyone else. How can he move on so quickly?

was probably an OW

As much as he is a d**k I don't think he did anything before we split - I knew where he was all the time (any time he wasn't at home, he was working for our business).

I think he is just trying to boost his ego as I've heard through the grapevine he is telling people we split because I didn't love him (and not because he physically harmed me).

And what help are you lovinglifexo
What a bloody stupid thing to say

So sorry to hear this and I'm sending but It is quite common for men just to crack on, still isn't nice though when you are missing the good times you had. Just think of it as another reason that you should move on

I honestly think it is so they look wanted and desirable and "hey, I can't be that bad as someone already wants me". Either that or she was waiting in the wings (as was the case with me and 99% of others). Plus they need their weekly shag and any one will do for that. Quite sad really

Your well rid! Left mine and he married within two months!!! Narcissistic behaving assholes never change! Thank your lucky stars he’s gone

Sit back and try to take the emotion out of it and look at this objectively.
You have ‘rejected’ him by moving out.
Someone is interested in him, so in his eyes, you were the problem not him.
You are well rid

He can focus his abusive behaviour on her which frees you... Good news for you.

Not the same but my dad cannot be single. It doesn't mean anything.

Push forward with your life on your own at the moment, better off without him.

Turn the sadness into pity for the woman who will now deal with him. It's what I do, at least. My ex's new partner is rude to me (unsure why, I am not rude to her) and tries to defend ex's crazy shenanigans but I just laugh because she doesn't know what I know. So this new woman has your EA ex but you have freedom. Freedom is better. :)

You're definitely better off without an EA person. It will hurt now, but it will get easier in time. It won't always be difficult and/or painful. In time you will find someone (when you're ready) and have happiness and a loving relationship.
