CONTEST ENTRY – Busted
Posted by PatBray on 11/06/2010
He started out overly sweet & loving, sensitive & attentive & very sincere. We weren’t kids, I was 50 he was 55. He was a Christian, and I wondered where he’d been all my life? Then it all turned around. He became very needy, more possessive, jealous (of the dog & my friends), I couldn’t keep up. Then after we were married about a year & a half, he went another direction… excessive golf, TV, work & overtime, coming home late, lying and getting caught, and being less attentive. Red Flags everywhere! Then he moved out… “to find himself”! Found out later from his ex wife that he was doing her and others and at the same time(she proved it), & he was telling me “I want to be the man you deserve to be married to”. We were married 2 1/2 yrs. I feel betrayed, used, and like a total loser with no intuition.
Where I am now? Angry, bitter, hurting, & lacking trust. Yes that’s where I was. I have moved forward, and am still working towards healing myself.
I’m still not ready to trust but have a bit of advice to offer. If he seems to good to be true, then he probably is. Take it very slow. Date him forever if you think you love him, the honeymoon will last longer. Ask the Ex if you are able, to tell you what kind of husband he was? Pat
