I am in my early 40's and following a spell of being single for 8 years bringing up DC I went out with someone for a year and a half. During this time we definitely had a lot of good times but they were tainted by the fact that about 3 times after we had a row he went on a bender. He didn't contact me for a week while he licked his wounds. The second time he did it I told him if he ever did it again that I would end the relationship.
He is doing this right now. He rang me and told me I was a bitch and drunkenly spelled out all my faults and hung up. I have no doubt that it is over. I will definitely miss the company as when things were good they were really good fun. I liked his family and friends and he liked mine.
He will ring me on Monday or Tuesday and apologise. I am going to accept his apology and get back with him. I am going to spend the next two weeks getting him to fix some jobs he started in my house and then I am going to tell him that its over. I won't be sleeping with him during the 2 weeks.
I have done an awful lot for him regarding admin for his business and set up some contacts through friends. The reason we argued was because he let down one of the contacts I set up. I was pissed off because I assured them that he was reliable.
I am just posting to tell someone so that I can get if off my chest. I have had a fair bit of crap doled out to me from my EXH and now him. I have always ended up the worst off financially. I am broke and cannot afford to get the jobs he started finished. Once the jobs are done I will pack up everything he owns for collection.
