Skippy started going into MLC shortly after his father passed away in 2008.
By 2011, he was shopping around for an OW. I found out later that there were several "tries" before he got one to stick. That started sometime in the early months of 2012. Things got serious enough that he decided to tell me he was "interested" in dating someone (by the time he admitted to her existence, they were already out in public and sleeping together). They broke up or whatever over the holidays last year but got back together in the spring of 2013. According to Skippy, the "relationship did not work out" which brings us to this fall. I have no more details and I am assuming that he means with the same girl.
I truly believe that the MLCer does not let go of the LBS until they have a solid back up. Mine sure did. It is also very true that if it would not have been the one he ultimately tried with, it would have been someone else. She was nothing more than available...and needy since she was going through a divorce of her own.
I am not sure what you mean by "reason" that he walked away. The OW gave him the courage to walk away from me. Reason? He screwed up is the only one I could think of. He was awful to me after the cat was out of the bag. I finally just physically took myself even further out of the picture - I did not initiate contact at all. And while he was happy with OW, he did not contact me.
Truly cannot wait until he is gone out of my head and heart.
