Man, I don't know where to begin. My ex-husband and I have been divorced for 10 years. He is remarried; and to the girl he was cheating on me with. Just recently, he was very unhappy with his current marriage. Turns out the grass wasn't greener and she was not the person he thought she was. We were seeking reconciliation for several months but it ended with the phrase "WRITE THIS DOWN SO THAT YOU DON'T FORGET!", the rest is irrelevant because those words were painful enough. Life goes on and so did I. That was seven weeks ago. 5 since we had last spoken. The problem is he's back again. Trying to win my heart so he says. He used my b-day as an excuse to come and see me, bringing beautiful flowers and a lovely card. A day that I could care less about.
Our problem was that we married young, respect, and him not coming home at night. Since then we both have changed a lot, mostly for the better.
The problem for me is that this is not just about good sex. We love spending time with each other and each others kids. We want the same thing for our lives and our children. When we see each other again it's like we've never parted. But we did. In short, I don't know how to be just his friend without missing, wanting, needing my husband. All of him. I go on with my life; he shows up. Why does this man keep coming back?
Why does he feel the need to be my friend? Why can't we get closure? If he is so unhappy why doesn't he just leave the situation he's in. Im tired of feeling like this. Loving him, not having him. This not a place I want to be in.
