Continuing my DB journey part 3

One other side note: and this is not to dig at him to throw gas on your fire. Rather, I am trying to give you a nudge to help you detach.

I don't get how someone can let their daughter be wjth a married man with 2 children. I guess there's a lot I will never get. I don't get that you leave your wife for a teenager and then make it out that you JUST started dating.

You have built this caricature about him, and the life he is trying to create. Surrounded by this happy R with 18girl, and her family. It feels like you have them sunshine and rainbows ready to walk down the aisle before the ink dries on the divorce.

You have these assumptions that they are happy, totally honest with each other in that dynamic.

However, you have a history with him about him not telling the truth, and rewriting history.

Why do you make the assumption that you have the market cornered with him not being truthful about your M and family, and extended family (and really his entire life)?

That entire new group is still finding their own way, he still has quite a bit of "new car" smell on him (as both a BF and a house-guest). As he makes some missteps with the truth, that new car smell will start to fade.

Again, giving you nudges to help detach.
