crazyguy123 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 So I my girlfriend and I started going out about last month. Sadly, she was in a sad and upsetting relationship that had gone on for 10 years. She's been wanting a break up for some time but the guy was manipulative. Anyways, the guy found out she was having an affair. He was speaking to me very respectfully, especially with the entire situation. He said he doesn't want his kids getting hurt and stuff and that I should never live with her. Just sleep with her and find someone good for myself because she isn't good for me. Especially with the things that have happen and stuff. In addition to our little talk, he has kinda like threatened me and my career as well. I didn't tell my girlfriend what our conversation was like. As this was like the absolute minimal thing I feel that I can do to respect him especially after I have been disrespecting him. Just to add to that, he is significantly older than she is. Nearly 2 decades. What should I do? What would you do if you were in my shoes? Link to post Share on other sites

CautiouslyOptimistic Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 What should I do? What would you do if you were in my shoes? Stop banging someone else's wife for starters. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Lotsgoingon Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Lemme make sure I got this: So you're dating a married woman ... who has been for ten years with an manipulative husband. And this manipulative husband stepped to you with dating advice for how to prudently date his wife ... and then he threatened you and threatened your career? Brother, do you have a heartbeat? You know how you see a bear, your body reacts with stress hormones, fight or flight ... brother it's way past flight time. You're in luck because you don't even need a ticket to catch this flight. Get them legs in motion and run! ... don't look back ... throw away phone ... tell the phone company to destroy all contacts. Run! 3 Link to post Share on other sites
dude360 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Put a ring on it, bro. She sounds like wife material. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Lobouspo Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Sounds like a complete and utter cluster---- to me. The married woman who justifies an affair because of the mean, manipulative husband who has her trapped in a bad marriage is the oldest trick in the book. Dude, quit messing around with married women. Anything bad that happens you kinda brought on yourself 1 Link to post Share on other sites

act00 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 You're dating a married woman who's husband found out about it, there are children involved, he's telling you to sleep with her, while also threatening you and threatening your career. Dude, it's time to run. Remove yourself from this situation. Don't talk to him and don't talk to her. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

She's not in a good enough place, emotionally, to be taking you on. You're just a rebound she's using to make her not-quite-ex jealous. I agree with him--the kids should not be hurt by the selfishness of any of the adults in this situation Link to post Share on other sites
Doost Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Steer clear of drama if it’s not worth it to you. Link to post Share on other sites
Rockdad Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Crazyguy did not say she was married he said relationship. What ever that might be is unclear without assuming. Link to post Share on other sites
Gaeta Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Crazyguy did not say she was married he said relationship. What ever that might be is unclear without assuming. I don't see the difference. They were together 10 years and have children together. That's as good as being married. OP, don't get killed over a woman you started dating 1 month ago. Move on. Link to post Share on other sites
DKT3 Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 If I'm being honest, it sounds like some kind of game to them. Now I get how a betrayed spouse could be all over the place but for him to say do as you please with her, then threaten you is very odd unless you aren't being clear and the threats were concerning you being around his kids.

BaileyB Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Stop banging someone else's wife for starters. Indeed. Is there nobody else for you to date... why do you want this drama in your life? They have kids together, this guy will be in your life creating drama for years to come... get out now, before it gets even more complicated. And next time, find a nice SINGLE girl to date.
