Sorry didn't want to. ;-(

Touche. But then again I responded at like 2AM and was woozy off 2 medications I'm taking for my glorious PAX Pox. I had the right to have not been thinking straight =P

I wish I could be happy for people. Jealousy and anger is what I feel.

O rly?

well then be sure to leave on good terms? (not many amenable divorces i can think of. most of the time just ends in awfulness. bunch of relatives got divorced)

Well written, Lugum.

Had experienced the first case a few years ago, when the person of interest and I were both in relationships lasting over several years. We were both unhappy though (and our partners knew that) and talked about it, becoming closer without noticing it first. But it's important that everyone in such a situation decides for oneself and bears the consequences (and not tests both ways).

However, if children are involved, it's even more complicated. I experienced two divorces as a child personally and though these times were hard, both were reasonable.

Fair enough. I was trying to playfully tease you, not rebuke you. I realise that it is a delicate line to tread via text, even between people that know each other, so I hope I didn't upset you (I like to make trying to have fun a high enough priority to run the risk of being misunderstood and hated).

This man obviously enjoys your attention. It's hard to know what is going on in his head, but one possibility relates to the grain of truth that I was hinting at with that jibe: if this fella is familiar with your Steam profile, he may have thought that you are naturally flirtatious and so did not tell you about his family because he thought you were simply toying with him (and others), not genuinely interested. Then again, us men are quite useless at reading subtle signs - we often need to be confronted with overwhelming unambiguous signals. There are, of course, other scenarios, but it's probably unwise to bring the situation to a head because it could be read as a tacit commitment on your part to something bigger than you realised, which could (should) be a deeper commitment than you might want to make to somebody that has not been entirely open to you.

Anyway, I'm sorry you've had such a shitty realisation. However, I still think it's better to have it now than later on when you are even more emotionally invested. If you are indeed breaking hearts as frequently as it seems, I'm sure that a better opportunity for you (with a more open and genuine man) can not be too far away.
