Well, I will try to be as brief as possible. I know there are a lot of questions about married men and cheaters but my story is a little different. I met this man, that goes to my work, 1 year ago. He was always very respectful, so much that I didn't like him at all, I thought he was gay, lol. After a few times more he began to flirt with me. He asked how old I was (I am 24, he is 36), my name and all that. I kind of felt strange like I couldn't believe he was flirting with me? I am beautiful by the way, since there are always a lot of men telling me things. He looks shy and very serious so I found it strange. Then time went by, he asked for my FB I accepted him and then began to chat. He told me I was beautiful and very friendly and that I liked him very much, and asked if I wanted to go out with him. I told him you have a wife and I have a boyfriend... so I really don't know, that's wrong. Before judging me let me tell you that his wife is unfaithful to him, they are just together for the money and for their kid of 11 years. I know she is unfaithful not because he told me, just because everybody knows it.

Ok the thing is she was travelling with their son, we went out, had sex (just a fling I would say) both knowing that it was going just to be sex, without compromise. That didn't happened that fast. Itry to knew him a little more before doing that. I accepted since he likes me a lot, he is like my dream man. He is sweet, and looks like he is searching for something more than sex. Anyway after that I never called him, contacted him, nothing! I wanted to act like I didn't care although I really fell for him! He was very sweet and treated me like a princess that night, we talked a lot after sex like for 2 hours... he cuddled with me, hugged and kissed me a lot, etc. I was like ? We like the same things, think the same way... Well, he went to my work (a movie rental store) like always, he always says hello to me and all that. The day of the fling he asked me when we could repeat it again, I told him I didn't know. Now when he sees me he always hugs me, give me a kiss and talks with me a lot. He looks a little sad when he sees me, I feel it, and sometimes he looks jealous when men talk to me. That happened 6 months ago, the other day he went and asked me again if we could go out. I told him that yes, but why after so much time? He told me he thought I was a pshycho. I was really mad since I NEVER acted that way. Although I'm really into him I always tried my best not to contact him and all that. I did sent some messages asking how he was and trying to tell him I wanted another fling but he ignored them. Well, the thing is he never called me or sent text messages that day.
My question is: why does he invited me to go out and then ignores it?

I don't understand anything at all. If he would want to use me he could be doing it already. Sometimes he looks like he just wants to talk to me about something but he looks scared. I know he doesn't love his wife anymore, he told me that and I believe him but he never talks bad about her. He is a gentleman after all. All married men and cheaters always talk bad about their wives. So, I'm getting crazy, I don't know what to thing, we have avery strong connection and I think he is very confused. Any help would be appreciated. ThankS!

The answer you are looking for, like it or not, is that he is married and he just wants you for a booty call whenever he feels the need. Plain and simple.

If he wanted anything more, then he would change his situation. As much as he seems a gentleman, he is married and he is cheating on his wife. Don't be foolish about the reality of the situation. If his wife is okay with it, then why not ask to meet her.. just so YOU know? I mean, after all, she's JUST in it for the money, right?

I think you are right but I do think he has feelings for me and he is just trying to hide them

DrJ
Oct 16, 2011, 07:07 PM
That could be very true.. but what good will it do either of you to entertain them? He doesn't seem like he is going to leave his wife anytime soon... and you shouldn't be wasting your time on a guy that is okay with cheating on his wife.

Do yourself a favor and pursue someone that is worthy of a girl like you. You don't want to have to be the unknowing wife to a guy like this. There are real men out there that are gentleman, kind, caring, respectful AND don't cheat on their wives ;)

That's very true. In 6 months he could have called me to have sex and he never did. Strange in men since they ALWAYS want sex. What do you think of him saying that he thought I was a psycho?

DrJ
Oct 16, 2011, 07:25 PM
The 6 months thing could have been that maybe his relationship with his wife was on the mend? Or maybe he found another video girl at another video store ;) Ya just never know.

The psycho thing... hmmm... hard to say. Maybe he just wanted an excuse for not contacting you that didn't put him at fault so that you couldn't hold it against him... and at the same time, put you in a position to feel that you have something to make up for.. double-bonus for him ;)

I think you already know the deal.

Hes married & at work. Not a great start.

Its more about you. Your character.

Who wants a girl like that?
I guess married guys. At work.

bubudollie
Oct 16, 2011, 08:07 PM
He don't work with me... he is just a client...

DrJ, I think too that was an excuse. He is amoron though because if he wants sex why he invites and then run away? I'm not asking him to leave his wife and never will. Also, I haven't told him about my feelings. Do you think he knows?I do said to him that night that I had a big crush on him... OPS! :(

vanheart
Oct 16, 2011, 08:17 PM
Nice one.

Just a client. You've said it all. Right there.

He's got a wife.

DrJ
Oct 16, 2011, 08:22 PM
Yeah, that definitely could have freaked him out a bit. If you develop feelings for him (or if he finds out you have), you become a threat to his marriage, which he obviously wishes to preserve.

If you are happy with being a mistress on the side for him, you would want to position yourself as exactly that.. someone that is perfectly satisfied with, or better yet, someone that prefers to remain on the sidelines... as if you absolutely do not want anything more. Then, he will feel safe with you and you won't be a threat to his marriage... you dig?

A wife that is unfaithful to him and don't respect him neither. Women sometimes act worst than men. Love don't last forever. Im not here to argue whether she/he is married or not, obviously they are and that is not the deal. The deal is should I give him a break.. I'm a open minded person, I'm not pshycho and I don't want to steal him from her or whatever but I would like to go out with him for a second time to see what he has to say. What do you think? Please don't insult me.

DrJ hahahaha I think I did... but I just wanted to say to him how much I liked him. He treats me well at least and respects me. I'm an adult and if I wanted sex with him well, that was my decision. I think I played with fire and got burned. I feel like I love him but I know that could not be since we haven't had that much opportunity to talk. I think is lust. :(

DrJ
Oct 16, 2011, 08:29 PM
(Wait... are you talking to me? Did you take what I said as insulting? )

Oh.. never mind. I didn't see your post to me yet

I think it all depends on what you really want out of this. If you are in love with him, I would imagine it would be very difficult to remain what he needs to remain. But if you are okay with that and you still want to see him, you will have to learn to give him a LOT of leeway... he's got quite a juggling act to preform ;)

Oct 16, 2011, 08:33 PM
Nooo! You are helping me a lot... I said that to the other user... he/she is very mad I think... hahha

Oct 16, 2011, 08:35 PM
Yeah... people often let their own sense of right and wrong get in the way of providing answers/advice for someone in need ;)

Oct 16, 2011, 08:38 PM
Yes, he likes to play I think. He disappears for weeks to see if I miss him. And obviously I just ignore him although I miss him like crazy!! But I will not show it. Also he posted on his FB a video from Chris Isaac-Wicked games... that was just hilarious!! He did it when we were talking on chat... and wrote: uufff... memories.. The thing is that the song goes very well with our situation..

vanheart

No insults.

Actually, his wife is none of your biz. Hope you got that. Wife. His biz. His wife. Not yours.

Just leave him alone. Move on.
Don't get with guys until they have their act together. Not married.
Have gotten over their exs before they get together w/ someone else.

You want what you want. He wants his. What's that?

"I don't want to steal him from her"

Then don't. Let them sort their stuff, then decide.

Don't wait.

DrJ
Oct 16, 2011, 08:43 PM
In reality, he obviously likes you to some degree... possible that he even likes you a lot. You can have strong feelings for more than one person. However, he IS married to the other one... so in the end, you are the one that has to suffer the small things. He has to preserve his marriage first, then make time on the side for you, if there is time at all.

bubudollie
Oct 16, 2011, 08:44 PM
Vanheart you are right but "Just leave him alone. Move on." I had always leave him alone.. (sorry if my english is not that good... it is not my first language). He is the one that goes where I work and always got something to say and flirts with me... like leaving the situation open so I don't forget about him. I don't feel like he is using me but if I begin to feel that way I will just forget him. I'm okay with the flings but it will not happen only when he wants to.

vanheart
Oct 16, 2011, 08:45 PM
Im going to say it again.

Don't get w/married men.

bubudollie
Oct 16, 2011, 08:50 PM
My friend at work knows the situation, she is my best friend, and think he is really into me and that sshe can see it ins his eyes. Also other girls at work asked me if he was in love with me or something because he looked like that.

vanheart

You're language has been fine to me. Translate away. Google, whatever.

Ive already got it. Understood you the whole time.

You haven't.

This has nothing but disaster written all over it.

MARRIED GUY.

Just because someone flirts & wants, well... doesn't mean anything.
Its all about what you want. Are you that desperate?

I would stop right now.

Get with a cool guy that has better qualities & isn't married, or trying to rebound & get laid.

bubudollie
Oct 16, 2011, 09:00 PM
I'm not desperate but I do have feelings for him. We are very compatible. Anyway, when we women are in love we tend to act very stupid! I must say I am being stupid... I know it.. but can't help it... Also things get worse since I have a relationship with my boyfriend of 10 years and everyday of my life I feel bored meaningless and like I need something new. We have a lot of issues and seems like it is not going to last more than 6 months. I don't know what to do.

DrJ
Oct 16, 2011, 09:04 PM
It sounds to me like you should break everything off. You are not happy in your current relationship, the relationship that DOES make you happy has no real hope for the future.

Wipe every slate clean, break it all off, move if you have to... but start fresh, start new, and build the life that you want, rather than being stuck in situations that will never bring you the happiness you are searching for.

bubudollie
Oct 16, 2011, 09:19 PM
Very true. I do love him but I'm not in love with him anymore. We are more friends and I don't like to have with him since we are always arguing. I need a man, not a baby. My boyfriend always depends on me and I got tired of it! I need some that I can depend on!

^sex

vanheart
Oct 16, 2011, 09:28 PM
Yup.

Glad you finally boiled it down.

Stay away from married guys.
"I do love him but I'm not in love with him anymore"

Be conscious of love.
What love means.

Its in the same in every language.

"I need a man, not a baby"

You don't "need" anything.
Just you.

bubudollie
Oct 16, 2011, 09:38 PM
I do care about my boyfriend but I think it is over. We have changed both our personalities and interests.. I feel we are only friends. I don't want to live like that, I want excitement in my life and I do need to stay alone for some time. I've only had this relationship since I was 15, now I'm 25 and feel like I have not lived. What can I do?

Oct 17, 2011, 03:40 AM
Yes, its sad when you feel like this but can't you two put things right on the table and talk it out. After all you have been together for l0 years so what has happened, you are too used to each other, do the same old things and you have matured and maybe he hasn't.

Maybe you just need time off and not an entire split, to see just what and who you are now and where you are going with him. I hope he doesn't take it personally, men don't seem to put two and two together when a woman wants time off.

You are very right. But I do feel like we don't like the same things anymore, this is the only boyfriend I've had... I haven't lived at all! :( Also, our sex life sucks.. we always end fighting.

Hi. I've had sex with this guy, he is married. At first I thought it was only going to be a fling just to have fun but after that I really fell for him and I do have feelings for him. I want to continuee seeing him although 6 months have passed and we haven't go out anymore. I understand the "without compromise" thing. I don't want to cause him problems or anything. He always sees me where I work, flirts with me and all that but seems like he is avoiding the sex situation... and it is very strange in a man and more when I do know I really like him. I don't pursue him at all, it was just one night, but I think there is something more and maybe he don't want to do it again after he said he wanted so we don't develop feelings for each other since we are very compatible in our personalities.

Your threads were put together as one and edited/T


What a mess of a situation to be in. You cheat on a long time boyfriend, with a married guy, who you have fallen for and you think because he has a rocky marriage, he has feelings for you?

That's what all the liars and cheaters go through. None can be honest enough with there partners, or make honest changes.

They just put all hope into any kind of attention that makes them feel good in their miserable lives, and the hell with the consequences. Heck, the only reason you are still with this old boyfriend is because you haven't found a place to go and get love on a regular basis, because married guy has a family to tend to, plus he only likes you for sex anyway. As miserable as he says his life is to you or others, he ain't going no where soon.

Probably has a couple of booty calls besides you.

Be honest with your boyfriend and just tell him the thrill is gone, and get your life together and stop being a silly piece of meat and get some dignity, and self respect about yourself.

That's the path to happiness since all a fling does is confuse your already addled head. Not to insult you or be cruel, just pointing out the utter stupidity of sharing your body with a few men and none of them are doing you any good at all.

You can do better for yourself.

The thing is that he is not a liar to me. Before all happened he told me it was going to be without any comprosime and I accepted. He's been trying to stay away but I noticed it is hard for him. He had all this time to play with me and ask for sex and he haven't done that. I think that he don't want to hurt my feelings. Sorry for my english.. is not my first language. He looks sad too. I don't know..

bubudollie
Oct 17, 2011, 10:41 PM
Also I have not shre my body with a lot of men... just my boyfriend of 10 years and the married guy.. He is not the type that gets a lot of booty calls.. if he can't go out with me since he is alays scared of the situation and Im 24... hes 36... what makes you think he is going out with other women? I don't think so and that's why I accepted to have the fling with him... he said yes to me because I like him too much, the same as I like him a lot.

talaniman
Oct 17, 2011, 10:48 PM
I do know, like all married men who cheat, he loves his booty calls, they make him feel good when he needs to feel good, but FACT is if he would cheat on his wife, he probably cheats on you too. How would you know? He would never tell you because then you wouldn't feel for him, or feel used, like you obviously are.

He has to make you feel like you are special to him doesn't he? But like most who help him a lying cheater to cheat, you think he feels true for you.

Stop having sex and I bet he disappears, and will come back when he has your body again.

Like I say, what good are you getting from this? Love? No this doesn't resemble love, or happiness. It's a booty call, free and easy sex, that's all there is.

You better listen, or you will never know what love and happiness is. Don't you deserve to know what happiness is? What real love is? What a happy, healthy love is?

bubudollie
Oct 17, 2011, 10:59 PM
He just had sex with me 1 time... what if I want to have sex too? And not love!

talaniman
Oct 17, 2011, 11:15 PM
If that's the best you can do for yourself, have at it and stop wondering about feelings. Its sex, that's all right?

What do you expect from just sex but a nut, and then back to the shop until next time, when he has time. If its just sex, then feelings don't matter, nor does the guy, and they are every where. They will have sex with you, they all will. What's the point? Its just sex, if that's what you want, hardly a path to happiness. Your choice.

bubudollie
Oct 17, 2011, 11:17 PM
At least I can have him that way! :( I don't know how to get out of this...

Think of yourself as more than a piece of meat, and see there is more to life than just sex. A lot more. Just as he found you, he can find others. Probably has. No doubt.
