He never gave me a fighting chance. He detached, met other women and finally found one as needy as he is. Does not want me at all. I have seen on several threads comments like the MLCer returns to family, to roots and to those ties. I feel like without those things, there is nothing to act as a pull back.
Hi Portia. I've read through your threads, sorry you're going through such a hard time. I'm new, still on moderation, but feel compelled to comment on this statement "the MLCer returns to family, to roots and to those ties. I feel like without those things, there is nothing to act as a pull back" -- the only thing married people have that you did not is a piece of paper. You and your SO have a long history together, are/were family to each other, with roots of a home and love.
Don't give up on your SO waking up out of the MLC confusion. He sounds even more confused and has an even screwier relationship with his OW than mine does. And that's saying a lot!
Hang in there. You may not realize it, but after reading thru your whole thread, I can see that you are so much stronger now!
Linda
