ooh also, Pommy, not that it matters but... the ex the AP is flirting with getting back together again with *is* from 2.5 years ago. She actually cheated on him with H. That is how their R started. And the sex they had recently was VIDEO SEX. But, you know, AP and H early on decided they would have "radical transparency" so of course she had to tell him, and unfortunately I didn't yet have the boundaries in place to plug my ears from having this garbage poured into them. The guy she is talking about traveling with is someone else, her best friend's husband's brother, who apparently she's used in the past to try to make H jealous also as H said "this guy is a loser and he's always had a thing for her." He's also "scared" she'll settle for her ex-BF (who is also a "loser") just to try to get over H and have a sad and unfulfilled life which will then all be his fault because he abandoned her.
I'm not joking. He told me all of this. (And the sad part is that I listened, I am seeing now. I'm a slow learner.)
I am so sad and angry to have been drawn into this pathetic triangle without my knowledge or consent.
