    So my marriage of 30 years ended with my ex demanding an open marriage, cheating on me, and generally treating me like garbage. I dipped my toes in the dating waters and met lots of nice people and quite quickly, my new partner. We've lived together six months now We are in Melbourne but I moved back from Tasmania. We've had a Hobart trip and on the weekend went to Cradle Mountain. I bought a romance package that included a dinner, breakfasts and a spa treatment that was an hour massage and 90 in in a room with a sauna and a spa bath that was exposed on the corner and open into the forest. It was amazing. My day to day life with this woman is incredible and the odd weekend like this just feels like heaven. She often says she doesn't understand how any woman left me, but we are glad she did

      If you agreed to the open marriage part, how did she cheat? If you didn't then she definitely did. But overall, I am happy that you have found someone who makes you feel happy and whole. Just call me Captain Pedantic.

      I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated. I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

        I mean that's cool and all Christian, and I'm happy for you. Seriously. But so far I've seen two modes: complaining and bragging. You made a post about your lady about you, not about her. You can take this info and just think I'm an a**, and I'm sure you'll find some peeps on CP to agree with you. Doesn't mean I'm wrong though. And hey I get it, I complain on here too... a lot. A lot, a lot. So, I'm a total hypocrite. But, I'm a hypocrite that's been around the block, man. And, I'm also a hypocrite that knows what it's like to be treated like an object by a chick and vice versa (back in my dumber days). The only thing this post is missing is bikini shots on a yacht. And for peeps that think I'm saying this from a place of jealousy, Christian knows me well enough to know it's not.

          She saw I was getting close to the woman I was dating and remembered I am monogamous and would probably just go with her. So she closed the marriage but insisted she had a free pass to have sex with one man once. Then she had sex three times.

            LOL. We are two middle aged people. I was just saying that I had a nice weekend. I'm sorry if you don't have weekends like that.

              I expected more of you than this. This little high horse you got is sad. What's tomorrow? Gonna brag about a new PC? We are middle aged, which means we should know better. And, you don't want to compare weekends man... you will not make me stoop to your level. But, I invite to think long and hard about our conversations over the decades... you should know better. And yes, I'm holding you to a higher standard because we're supposed to be more mature than this now man. Either way, glad you're happier. I'll shut up now.

                  You do realize your story doesn't make sense right? If you're married and dating a different girl getting close... you're not monogamous. Also, if you didn't nail this chick then it's not an eye for an eye for your wife to nail some dude. It's clear none of this was a mutual choice. I'm not dissing nail two chicks btw, not at all. But when something doesn't add up... something doesn't add up.

                    TBH you're wrong. I feel bad for you. :thumbsup: I bet my computers cost more than yours... I'm gonna talk abut that now and feel bad for you if you don't have expensive computers. And yes, I'm using PCs as an example in hopes you see it, but I have my doubts.

                      Yeah so my ex always told me all women would hate me. I put myself out there to go along and expected nothing. I met someone and we had kind of a one night stand (I couldn't go through with it) and then became friends. Context made it dating but we never kissed even, we just talked a lot and I looked for a friend when my heart was breaking. But things started to shift and she noticed that. It was all very complicated and yes, none of it was my choice. I was never nailing two chicks LOL.

                        I am sorry you feel bad that I am in love. That was not my intention. And probably, my main PC now is a Mac Book Air I bought to complete an iOS project. My other computer cost $5k about five years ago and is falling apart. I only keep it because getting my Android phone to talk to my Mac is a bitch.

                            I've also been in a relationship that was that dysfunctional Christian... where I couldn't go through with nailing the other chick. We were both too immature despite our age. But, you cheated way before intercourse came up, man. And you don't see me talking about how I'm "monogamous" online from a relationship I was a d**k in. That was a messed up relationship I should've ended way before it got to that point, but I'm under no illusions about my role in screwing things up. Something to think about.

                                Oh I should have just left, I just lacked the self confidence. No question about that. I also started drinking 20 drinks a day in that time, I was an absolute mess and trying to keep my head above water. I barely drink nowadays. I used up all my drink cards, my kidneys are fucked

                                      Well, despite everything in this thread... congrats for stopping drinking man. That's a huge accomplishment. Hope your kidneys are all like... noice now. :laugh:

                                        I take medication to control my kidneys, they are at 70%. Yeah look I think it's the autism but I just woke up one morning and realised this wasn't who I wanted to be. I still have the odd cocktail, I'm not a quivering addict on the verge of relapse

                                          ...which are often followed by this. That's always uplifting. Good on ya, man. :thumbsup: :rose:
