I clearly got the impression that something was wrong with me for being cheated on or I was coming across as someone with baggage?
I don't know- I do know I need to find a way to explain why I have an 11 month old and am separated.
So maybe just say "well we are separated and probably headed for divorce" and that is that? ANd like I have said, I won't date until I am ready.
First, I think he was rude. There's nothing wrong with you! You're a strong, lovely women! You can't control your WH!
But I do think your "we're separated and possibly headed for divorce" is better because it's vague. You're used to venting here about your situation, but you're among friends and we're all walking this unfortunate path together.
Offline it's a different story. I'd recommend playing it close to your chest until you get to know someone better.
I read on an acquaintance's Facebook page over the weekend that she and her husband had decided to divorce. "The reasons are unimportant," she wrote. "Please pray for us and the kids during this difficult time." Every single comment (30+) offered condolences, thoughts, and prayers. No details, no "dirt." All very classy --
