Listen to Your Heart

He may promise to be with you when the child is able to understand the situation, or when his parents approve the divorce, or when his wife is strong enough to stand alone.  When will that happen, in 5 years or so?  And after all, he cheated once betraying one woman's happily-ever-after dream.  How can that possibly be reasonable to believe his promise?

And now you are literally alone in almost all holidays and weekends.  These are family times.  Eventhough you may think you are important to him, but face it, you are not family.  They have a prior claim on his time and his loyalty.  You'll always be No. 2 and that's not fun!

And your friends and family against this relationship, because they love you and want only the best for you.  Sadly you will not be able to discuss this matter with them and most of the time he will become the only person to support and accompany.  Yet he's not always available for you.  You will always be visibly alone in front of others.  And they will wonder what's with you that you cannot find any partner.

So wake up and smell life.  Run as fast your feet allows you to go.  You deserve so much better than this two-timer.
