Ditto...

This is the response I gave when my c asked if I met my ex now would I be attracted to him as he is now - and my answer was NO.

He it trying so hard to be something/someone he isn't, and it is the OW/questionable friends he is trying so hard to impress.

From the very brief insight I get at the moment, I would say he is still not a happy man, but cannot see that it him who has to fix the problems within first.

Will seem to do/say anything to avoid having to tell the truth... well to me anyway.

I can so see where you are coming from with this.
