    Would any agree that this feels like a sex offense?

    My situation was discovered not disclosed and my soon to be ex is still very much in denial. I just found out over the weekend that he's trolling the dating sites for my replacement. It makes my blood boil to think of him screwing with someone elses head and emotions like he did with mine and the ones before me. I feel like he should have to register as SOMETHING ... I don't know. he's been caught and I feel sexually offended. What keeps him from doing this OVER and OVER?

    Sadly, nothing really stops this from repeating. Concealing your sexuality isn't necessarily a crime although I would say it's certainly unethical. You are now seeing the true person behind the mask. I wish you strength and perseverance as you move forward.

    Yeah I suppose you're right. I felt the need to tie on my cape and fight for justice. I'll focus on myself and keep the thoughts of what could happen to someone else out of my mind since there's really nothing I can do about it. Thanks for putting it in perspective I woke up wound up

    That's a good question. I suppose I should own the fact that it hurts to know that, despite how "desperately sorry he feels for hurting me", it's only taken 2 months to feel ready to move on. It just further solidifies the difference in the commitment to our relationship between the two of us. But really I should be glad because he's given me room to breath this week, the constant phone contact was smothering ...and a crutch I needed to kick. How are you today?
