Remove yourself from the situation and look at it from outside.
Imagine your best girlfriend told you her husband had an affair. Her husband’s affair woman then dumps his a**. Then she tells you this:
Quote
A week after she left, he was back home and we started to settle a bit into a new dynamic. He then dropped the bombshell that he felt closer to me than he had in years.
What would you say to her? What advice would you give?
This is what I’d say:
“What a load of BS. He said that because he got dumped by plan A and he needed to fall back on his backup plan while searching for plan B.”
Are you okay being someone’s backup plan Misty? I’d have thrown his belongings onto the sidewalk.
“…he felt closer to me than he had in years.”
GIVE. ME. A. BREAK. 🙄🙄🙄 You couldn’t make this stuff up.
