My H and I used to tell each other we didn't care if either one of us decided to date others (during our S), but the truth was, we did. When I actually started going out and dating, he put up a front like it didn't faze him. Two weeks later, he threw a HUGE tantrum and said some pretty nasty things....because he was hurt.
After finding out before Christmas time that H was actually seeing someone for the last year (he always denied it), I was hurt. Didn't think I could be after all the time that had past, but I was.
It can be very difficult for some people to accept that their S has seemed to move on.
Getting over a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars. You have to let go at some point in order to move forward. ~ Joseph Campbell
