Introduction

by ThatWoman @ 2008-05-04 - 19:34:21

I find myself in the curious situation of being what is often described as "The Other Woman". This is not something I am proud of but something I must try and get my head round.

Hopefully this blog will clarify my feelings and help me work through the "treacle mine" of my present situation.

If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary-wise; what it is it wouldn't be, and what it wouldn't be, it would. You see? - Alice in Wonderland

It certainly is a curious world for those of us who have not made a habit of being the other woman...

Being a woman who was "traded in for a newer model" I find it very difficult. I always said that knowing the hurt I felt from being deceived by my then husband and his "girlfriend" I would never do the same to another woman.

Circumstances aren't always the same though and I now realise that it's not a clear right versus wrong situation.

Like yours my lover feels duty bound.

maybe this is a learning experience. You now see that it is not all black and white, so maybe you can move on forgiving your husband- if you need to, forgiving his lover etc. Every experience can be used to grow if we let it

I forgave them years ago but still promised myself that I wouldn't have anything to do with a married man. I remember the pain I went through.

Hi, I didnt't read your introduction first ((sorry)) before leaving the comment on askoranswer.

I thought you sounded like your were in the same boat as me - very rude of me sorry -

I had a bit of a ding dong with my boss at work aged 19, He brought me with his cash really - Not actual cash, but lavish gifts and holidays. I really regret it now, looking back but I was very young and he was around 36 so I was flatterd by all the attention.

I am 32 now and have never done it since and I never would again, it made me feel cheap and I would hate to have that done to me. But on the other hand..you cant help who you fall in love with. You are older enough to know what you want, I just hope that you dont really fall deeply in love, he might let you down.

It might be you thinking " oh well " I want to have my own life and not have to be tied down, it's when feeling get stronger - then the hurting starts and familys break up.

Good luck with it & have fun.

He won't let me down I do know that and he did want to tell his wife but I said that I didn't want that.

I do have fun when we're together but I need something more than that.

Thank you for your comments.
