I loved this guy to bits.

we were engaged and planned to be married. i had to break up the relationship as i discovered he is already married and has a kid. as well i discovered he cheated on me more than once. he apologised several times for cheating and for not telling me hes already been married. i wanted to move on with my life as i think i deserve better than that,but in these 9 months we havent been together hes been begging me to take him back. its been a roller coaster of emotions for me. both of us are 28years old.i tried to forgive him and i even forced myself to accept hes married and i will be his second wife (as hes muslim and im catholic)…but i cant take it.he sees his wife and kid twice a week and he spends the rest of the week with me.what shall i do? i ve been crying for long now,cant do this anymore.i have a very good professional job in which im succeeding thank God and used to be a model as well which i stopped.nowadays i dont talk to anyone and i dont even go out,i dont socialise.i dont wear nice clothes anymore and i go to work and go straight home.thats all i do cos im all the time thinking if i should forgive and forget all this and take him back or should i move on with my life without him. to be honest i still love the guy with all my heart.

Honestly, you deserve better. You love him, but do you think he loves you? Can he if he can cheat and deceive you? Would you be able to do that to him? Find someone who is deserving of your love, who will love you just as much in return. It will hurt as you invested so much, but you are worth so, so much more. Just thank your lucky stars you didn’t get married. Good luck.

I think I was in a similar situation, and I asked myself will things get better ten years from now and realized if I am unhappy with him right now (although I love him with all my heart), I would not be able to make him happy and things would only get worst, because I will lose myself and will not be the same person he fell in love with.

I decided to end our engagement, its very painful and hard, but I have to be realistic if I am unhappy right now, how can things get better in the future?!

Of course, this is my story, but remember you will have to compare which pain you would be able to endure the continuous pain of his lies or with the temporary pain of moving on.

WAKE UP….gosh I wish I could SMACK you right now!!!!! Do you realize what you are saying/asking??? You just wrote it in black and white….he has a wife and children- a wife that he still sees and has a relationship with. WAKE UP, Quit being weak and playing the victim and TAKE THE **** TRASH TO THE ROAD.

What you think you have with him isn’t real, your really need to wake up and move on.

Does his wife/child know about you?
If they do not then I think that it would be better if you left him well alone. I know that you love him but he is married with a child. If he cared for you as much as you seem to for him then why hasn’t he split up with his wife not even mentionning the cheating. Nobody should be treated like that.
Also, you think you might be having it hard, what about his wife? And his child? If she knows what’s happening how do you think she feels about it? And if she doesn’t then the man you love is dispicable.
Just try and forget about him a little while, socialise a bit and meet some poople. Do something challenging to take your mind off him. I understand that it would be hard to do but if he cannot face up to having an honest relationship based on TRUST then he’s not worth it.
If you really feel that you have to be with him then I think you should ask to meet his wife. It may help you in making your decision.
I hope it all goes well.
